The Cider House, Quatt
  • Cider House Wootton Green (01746 780285)

Isolated cider house much extended but the original bar is still relatively unspoilt. Approached via narrow lanes which can be a little treacherous during the summer when the cider house is very popular with a younger and older crowd. All the information you could want for at http://www.rjdunn.co.uk/theciderhouse.info/index.htm. Some problem with the licence due to the incompetent police force and utterly useles Bridgnorth Council was reported earlier. In order to comply with police demands to cut down on trouble at the pub, from 1st April 2006 customers will not be able to take drinks into the car park where there are usually a lot more people than inside the pub! The main reason to visit this pub is to try the Bulmers Special which is only available here and at The Hare & Hounds, Bridgenorth.
