WHAT’S IT LIKE?
The Fox & Hounds was described as a little pub in local beer guides until it was refurbished and extended in 1984.
The site was originally two cottages which were converted to a beerhouse by 1866. Beer was brewed on the premises, probably using water drawn from its own well. The beerhouse was known locally as The Drum and Monkey before it burnt down in the mid 1860s. It was re-built and re-named shortly afterwards.
It still has the air of a pub in a quiet backwater, seeming almost oblivious to the spread of Wroughton around it, and continues to attract a varied clientele.
WHO GOES THERE?
Whether after a cool pint after a visit to the nearby Wroughton Science Museum or a quiet evening meal, The Fox & Hounds promises to fit the bill.
