Dumb Post Inn

A significant part of Bremhill life The Dumb Post Inn is situated where four roads meet and has 15th century origins. Formerly it was two buildings, likely to have been a coaching inn and brew house with stables. It also provided a venue for local auctions and hunt meets. In 1845, the Inn was the meeting place of the Tithe Commissioners and in the following year newspaper reports suggested that it was the planned location of an Anti-Corn Law League Meeting, which instead, took place outside the church by the village cross. The Inn was substantially rebuilt in the early 18th century with two storeys, an attic featuring rubble stone walls and concrete plain tile roofs, coped gables and ashlar end stacks. The property was part of the Bowood Estate until 1947 and listed in 1978.
