Next Meeting: Monday 21st March 2022 – History of The Fleece Inn, Bretforton

Our next meeting will take place in the Lifford Memorial Hall on Monday 21st March 2022 starting at 7pm.  Nigel Smith, landlord of The Fleece Inn, Bretforton, will be giving an illustrated talk on the history of the Inn. The Inn was built in the late 15th century as a traditional longhouse, with both humans and livestock living under the same roof. The builder was a yeoman farmer named Byrd and the Byrd family owned the building until it was given to the National Trust in 1977.
