Originally named after the Masonic Arch, The Royal Arch ancestry dates back to 1856 when it was known as The Royal Arch Tavern, later becoming The Royal Arch Hotel in 1869 and then The Royal Arch Arms. In the 1930’s, the bar was owned by Jim Wills who sponsored Scottish boxer Ken Shaw, later being taken over by Mrs Cardwell who decorated the bar with her own label whisky bottles and whisky and rum decanters which can still be seen in
the pub today, one of which a couple from Blackpool gifted to the pub a few years ago – they had rescued it from a pub in Blackpool which was closing down and brought it back up to Scotland where it belonged.
