Fountain Inn, 27 Cross Cheaping

Alternative Addresses:Burges
Fountain Inn, Cross Cheaping In August 1862 William Howe was issued with a new license for The Fountain. In 1929 the license was surrendered for the transfer of the license of the Boadicea, Market Place, to the Burnt Post, Kenpas Highway.

This sign can be heraldic, referring to the Crest of the Plumber's Company and also the badge of the Master Mariners, or it can refer to a nearby spring or well. Before piped water was a part of everyday life such natural sources of water were of great importance. In Coventry this may well refer to the city's conduits.
