The 300 year old Grade II listed Falcon Inn is located on a bend on the A417 and is a dominant landmark when approaching Poulton from the east. The Cirencester Brewery already owned the Falcon Inn when the brewery became a Limited Company in 1888.
In the 1990’s the Falcon Inn organised an annual conker competition of which the proceeds were donated to charities.
The Falcon Inn closed in the winter of 2008 and was empty for six months until John and Maggie Armstrong reopened the pub on June 13th 2009.
