    A Brief History

    The Inn was built between 1450 & 1500, probably by the Bishop of Salisbury to accommodate visitors to his manor. The pub incorporates a 15c 'Cruck' construction encased within a later brick rebuilding. Some of these original timbers can still be seen in the bar.

    Records are available from 1647 to 1768 but after this date there is a gap until 1855.

    The 1891 Census still records the name as the 'George Inn' so the name changed to the ‘George & Dragon' sometime after this date and before the 1901 Census.
