Welford on Avon in Warwickshire is about four miles to the west of Stratford on Avon. I have included the pubs as they are listed in the 1891 and 1903 Gloucestershire books of licensed premises and also in contemporary county directories.
The brick built Bell Inn has a large bell hanging from a bracket on the side of the pub.
