The role of pubs in certain towns cannot be understated, either as a place to meet, a hub for activities or just as a way of honouring the traditions of the area.
Bishop's Castle is one town which leads the way in Shropshire for beer, in particular real ale, with the oldest working brewery in Britain in the Three Tuns and the Six Bells micro-brewery.
With so much good beer being produced within the confines of the south Shropshire market town, the pubs have had to work to provide the right setting for people to come in and sample those beers.
One pub which has worked hard to make itself a true ale house is the Six Bells on Church Street, a pub with a lot of history and heritage in Bishop's Castle.
The pub was one of fifteen pubs in the CAMRA Branch area which appeared in the first Good Beer Guide in 1974 when it was owned by the Shrewsbury & Wem Brewery, having originally started life as a farm.
Set in a striking colour of orange and dark green, the Grade II Listed pub has a traditional two-roomed layout, with a public bar and lounge, with the bar being a rural retreat with exposed stone walls, low beams, copperwork, wood burner, inglenook and settles.
