Jon Wagstaffe: Look at the Council Estate of Him – PWYL

40 seater room upstairs function room in one of the UK’s oldest coach houses, the Old Bell. The Old Bell in Derby is a grade II listed coaching inn dating back to the 17th century. Having recently undergone a £1.3m renovation it has been restored to its former beauty and is the perfect place for all the family to eat, drink and be entertained. The Old Bell Hotel is a beacon of Derby’s history and heritage stretching back over 350 years. The Old Bell Hotel is Derby’s largest and last surviving coaching inn and has played a huge role in the history of Derby. The grade II listed building was constructed in 1650 and was considered one of the most prestigious coaching inns outside of London. For much of the 17th and 18th century The Old Bell Hotel was a centre for travel, food, hospitality and leisure as well as the home to many families. Boasting four functions rooms, three bars and The Belfry restaurant, The Old Bell Hotel continues to be at the centre of Derby’s food, drink and entertainment scene.
