Summary
| Description |
English: Southampton: Duke of Wellington public house The Duke of Wellington is in Bugle Street. The grey plaque on the right side of the pub reveals its interesting history. It states that "the 12th century stone house on this site, the foundations and cellars of which still remain, was from 1220 owned by Benedict Ace, one of the earliest named Mayors of Southampton from 1237 - 1245. The house was damaged in the French raid of 1338, but around 1490 was incorporated into the present building by a brewer, Rowland Johnson, and named the Bere House. It has remained an inn ever since, but its name changed to the Duke of Wellington soon after the Battle of Waterloo. It was damaged by enemy action during the 1939 - 1945 war and was restored during 1962 - 1963." |
