I imagine this is a reference to the availability of wine. This pub was thought to be a seventeenth century timbered building. It also said to have been rebuilt timber by timber in the Civil War after being removed from outside the City Walls. In 1935 it was a Flowers house but was destroyed by bombing on 8th April 1941. A temporary wooden structure was used as the pub after the war and this closed on 19th October 1959. The license was transfered to the Styvechale Arms on Kenpas Highway |
