On the corner with Hawkins Lane this 17th century inn was pulled down in 1857 to make way for Finzel’s sugar factory. When Courage’s Brewery was extended in 1967 a fermenting block was opened on this site. The Bristol Brewery closed down a few years ago and the site has since been re-developed.
Hawkins Lane led down to the original Countess Slip (Counterslip) opposite St.Peters Church and the ferry to Bristol Castle
