Ye Olde Six Bells

This was our local watering-hole in our "youf".

 

The origins of the pub are reputedly 9th century (though I do wonder if there is ANY historical basis for this claim at all), but most of the current building is 15th century. It obviously gets its name from the bells in St Bart's church. Both the church and the pub are on the River Mole, only a mile or two from its source near the runway at Gatwick Airport.

 

A popular place to visit by people staying at the very many airport hotels.
