J D Wetherspoon - the biggest art gallery in Britain

Wetherspoon has embarked on a new project to highlight the history of our pubs across the UK.

Many of the company’s pubs are built on the site of interesting and, in several cases, unique buildings. These include former banks, post offices, churches, theatres, cinemas and even an opera house.

We are highlighting four pubs, with historical connections, on the website www.jdwetherspoon.com/pub-histories and will be adding many more of our pubs in the months and years ahead.

One of the pubs chosen is in the Exeter area – George's Meeting House. Its stained-glass windows and pulpit are not something you’d expect to find in a pub!

Customers are also given the chance to share any stories they have about their local pub, they simply have to email pubhistories@jdwetherspoon.co.uk, and their information will get added to the pub’s page.
