Five Bells
Another lost pub! Five Bells, 85 South Street, Bridport, is one of thousands of English pubs to have closed over the decades, a trend that has accelerated recently. Five have closed in Bridport this century.
It probably opened in 1852 but it is not known when it actually called "last orders". Apparently the area in and immediately around Bridport had a maximum of c80 licenced public houses of which about 20 remain today. This tile panel is all that remains of the Five Bells which is now a private house.
