Summary

[edit]
Description
English: The Bell Inn, Finedon This is claimed to be the oldest licensed inn in England. The sign outside and stone work states ER 1042 which may refer to Queen Edith (wife of Edward the Confessor) who held the lands of Finedon (Thingdon or Tingdene) and is mentioned in the Domesday Book. The pub is undoubtedly ancient and accounts exist showing it to be a hostelry in 1716, it may have taken its name from the time when the Church nearby only had one bell (it had at least five bells from 1637).
