The Farmers Hotel, Warminster, Was Deliberately Built As A Hotel
West Wiltshire District Council’s Warminster Town Centre Conservation Area Character Assessment Informative Document, adopted in April 2007, noted:
The Farmers Hotel [at Silver Street, Warminster] is, in contrast [to the Weymouth Arms at nearby Emwell Street], a later building, deliberately built as a hotel, although attached to earlier buildings at the rear that may have been workshops. Interestingly, this started out life as a grocery, licensed to sell tea, coffee, pepper, tobacco and snuff before changing to a temperance hotel in 1879, selling cocoa. The most salient feature of this building is its angled front onto the corner of Silver Street and Sambourne Road.
