Shoulder of Mutton, Old Church Road, Bell Green

Alternative Addresses:Foleshill
In 1837 and 1840 the pub was used for auctions. In 1866 Thomas Hughes conveyed this pub to T. Dewes for £45. In 1874 it was the Beerhouse, Bell Green. In 1937 the de-licensed Shoulder of Mutton was purchased for £650 to enable a housing estate to be built.


A shoulder of mutton was a popular dish at inns. In some inns it may have indicated that the innkeeper was also the local butcher.
