The Ship – 104 Peach Street
Up to 1901
The oldest part of the present Ship is the 17th century timber framed building at the corner of
Peach Street and Wiltshire Road. It has been much altered; the original outer walls having been
replaced with brick while many of the internal walls have been removed.
1901 to 2011
Today, some of the original beams can still be seen in the bar, together with a number of replicas,
steel girders covered with wood, where walls have been removed. The western part of the building
was a blacksmith’s shop while part of the building and part of the car park occupy the site of three
of the l5th century Westende almshouses.
