The oldest pub in Bristol has been licensed since 1606. The tall gabled section is the original inn. Houses on either side were damaged in the Blitz and rebuilt as wings to the inn. In the 18th century a cock-fighting ring was set up at the rear and later a boxing ring. Bristol produced several of boxing’s bare-knuckle champions: Benjamin Brain (1791), Jem Belcher (1800) and Henry Pearce (1803). The celebrated Tom Cribb (1809) was born at nearby Hanham.
