Additional Info
History
The current 18th century building is believed to stand on the site of a fourteenth century inn.
In the late 1500s it was called the George and Dragon. Renamed the Lord Abingdon Arms in 1754 in honour of the local landowner, it became the Lopes Arms in about 1809 when Sir Manasseh Lopes bought the manor.
By the late 19th century, it was thriving as a commercial and family hotel with horse-drawn transport for hire.
An omnibus was sent to meet every train arriving at Westbury station and bring passengers to the hotel. It was also the venue for several local inquests and auction sales.
At the start of the First World War, it was briefly used to accommodate officers from the Army Service Corps.
Towards the end of the 20th century, it was renamed again and became the Westbury Hotel, before reverting to the Lopes for its final few years as a public house.
