More about this scene
The Lopes Arms, left, became the Westbury Hotel in 1989. There has been an inn on the site since the 14th century. It became the St George and Dragon in 1596, the Lord Abingdon Arms in 1754, and the Lopes Arms after a terrible fire in 1809. The rendering has been removed to show the red brick facing. The splendid ornate wrought iron lamp bracket is still at the entrance, a reminder of the Lopes family. Cannon Green, consisting of Nos 1-3 Market Place, is an 18th-century terrace, named after the Russian cannon from the Crimean War which used to stand there before it was removed for scrap metal during the Second World War.
