Salisbury Pub Set to Return to Its Original Name The Cloisters

A well-known Salisbury pub is set to return to its original name, with The Bell and Crown soon to be rebranded as The Cloisters.

The pub, at 83 Catherine Street, Salisbury, SP1 2DH, has a long history in the city and has previously traded under the name The Cloisters. The venue is located close to Salisbury Cathedral and is a familiar landmark on Catherine Street.

The change will see the Bell and Crown name replaced by The Cloisters, bringing back a name that has been associated with the historic pub for many years.

The building itself has a long history, with records describing it as dating from the 14th century. It is also a Grade II* listed building, reflecting its historic importance.

The pub has previously changed names over the years. Historic records show that the venue has been known as both The Cloisters and the Bell and Crown, with the Bell and Crown name having been used in recent years.

The return to The Cloisters will therefore restore a familiar name to the Salisbury city centre pub.

The venue has traditionally been known as a pub close to the Cathedral and offers a large bar area divided into several drinking spaces, along with an upstairs function room.

The change is likely to be welcomed by people in Salisbury who remember the venue as The Cloisters and recognise the name from its previous years in the city.

The pub's address remains 83 Catherine Street, Salisbury, SP1 2DH, with the venue situated within the city's historic centre.

The return of the name also adds another chapter to the history of one of Salisbury's longstanding pubs, with The Cloisters name once again set to appear above the Catherine Street venue.
