Inns used at Associations



When the annual association met at Hook Norton or Bourton on the Water it would seem that the churches made their own efforts to accommodate visitors. Where the association took place in a larger pace an inn would be recommended the year before. Those recommended in the second half of the eighteenth century are as follows.

The Red Lion (1736) and The Talbot (1747, 1757, 1769) Upton upon Severn
