George and Pelican Inn

Newbury, United Kingdom

The George and Pelican Inn was an English coaching inn that provided food, entertainment and overnight accommodation for travellers between London and Bath for over 200 years, from the middle of the seventeenth century until the opening of Newbury station in 1847. Originally two separate inns, they later combined, although each retained a separate identity by providing different services. Located in Speenhamland, Newbury, Berkshire, it was the most famous of a series of pubs located on the London to Bath Road, now the A4 as it runs through Newbury. The building occupied by the George and Pelican was Grade II listed in 1950.
