Reg Cundick and Danny Howell in the book The Inns And Taverns Of Warminster, published in November 1987, stated:
The Bird In Hand, High Street, Warminster
There were two inns with the name The Bird In Hand in Warminster. They were both recorded by Daniell and Halliday.
The first-known and probably the earliest was located by Halliday at High Street, and being in existence in 1740. He noted that about 1830 it was Mr. F. Seagram’s house. Seagram was a surgeon who lived at The Chantry. This house, which still survives on the north side of the High Street today, and is currently a dental surgery, could have been built on the site of The Bird In Hand.
