The Lamb Inn, Market Place, Warminster

Reg Cundick and Danny Howell in the book The Inns And Taverns Of Warminster, published in November 1987, stated:

The Lamb Inn
The Lamb Inn stood on the site, on the north side of the Market Place, which until recently was occupied by Stiles Bros., ironmongers.

According to an annotation in the 1801 Survey Of Warminster James Webley had apparently taken over the inn in 1803. He was the proprietor in 1822 when it was known as The Lamb And Flag. He was also a maltster and in the 1838 Survey Of Warminster he is recorded as the lessee under the Marquess of Bath, with Richard Bedford as the occupier.

The inn was still in existence in 1859 when Moses Glass was the licensee but the building ceased to be a public house by 1867.
