The Globe Inn - Wells, Somerset - Pictorial Pub Signs on Waymarking.com

Pub sign outside The Globe Inn on Priest Row, Wells.

The sign depicts an Italian style old globe with what looks like a 16th century nautical map - rather like those 'classy' replica drinks cabinets. Set on a simple black background with a handwritten style name of the pub.

A traditional 300+ year old family-run pub located down a side street just south of the city centre.

"Inn. Early/mid C19, with gabled rear wing of 1900 linked to earlier range on left.
