The Cherub Inn
The Cherub dates from 1380 and still retains many of its original features, including some old ships' timbers, and its original use is thought to have been as a Merchant's House. It is the oldest building in Dartmouth - possibly the oldest "town house" in the South Hams - and is a Grade 2* Listed Building, a category reserved for the most interesting of smaller buildings.
This photograph of Higher Street (circa 1890) shows what is now The Cherub to the left of the group of people. This was the principal street of Dartmouth in Elizabethan times and was almost untouched until a fire in 1864 destroyed the southern end, and during the Second World War the side opposite The Cherub was bombed. In 1958 the building was virtually derelict but was completely restored by Mr. Cresswell Mullett who also restored No.3 Higher Street.
In the 60's The Cherub was a private members club and it was only in the early 70's that it became an Inn and Restaurant. The entrance door leads straight into the bar and on the two floors above are the restaurants and kitchen. Below the bar is the beer cellar with probably another cellar (now filled in) below that. This sub-basement would probably have had access onto the foreshore when the river flowed where Lower Street is now.

The London Inn
Pub History
The Royal Hotel, two doors along from this Wetherspoon pub, is now only a third of its original size. The pub stands on part of the site of the original hotel, which replaced the London Inn in the early 1800s.
It changed its name to the Royal Hotel, following a visit made by Princess (later Queen) Victoria in 1833

The Malsters Arms Tuckenhay
It appears that the Maltsters Arms public house originates from the late eighteenth century when the quays of Tuckenhay were bustling with activity. Various commodities such as lime, corn, paper, cider, road stone and malt were transported by water to and from the hamlet. The Maltsters Arms itself is still prohibited from trading in manure, corn or coal.
By the mid 1800's cider and malt were being produced on the quayside. William Manning and John Earle owned a cider works there and Thomas Edmonds malt house gave authenticity to the Maltsters Arms Inn situated above. Trade continued to flourish until the beginning of the Second World War. The last ship of any size to arrive at the quayside was the 240 ton coaster Reedness in 1939. After the War the principal activity at Bow Creek was cider making, still using water transport, but this time by barge. In the Sixties a 100 ton boat coming back down from Totnes was still able to take on a huge load of straw here to take to Exeter.
Tuckenhay had the first gas lighting in the world - before Manchester and London! The original gas engine-house can be seen next to the river just 200 yards up the road. Bow Creek has always been associated with smuggling as the upper reaches of the Dart are so dark and secluded. Drug running and bootlegging still occur.

The Old Rydon Inn
The Rydon is well worth a visit now. The restaurant has been bought by the chef who was there about a decade ago and the food is great. We stopped going when it was brewery owned as it was awful - but have been quite a lot since. The food is cooked in house by someone who knows what they are doing. The Beef Stifado is great, as is the haddock. The kids menu is smaller portions of the adults meals and they are happy to accommodate different requests. No Chicken Nuggets on the menu! I can't recommend it strongly enough - it is back to its best!

The Gog and Magog Plymouth
This Wetherspoon pub is named after two legendary giants, whose images were cut into the turf near here, on land later covered by the Citadel fortress.
The Citadel was built on the orders King Charles II, in the 1660s. This massive star-shaped fortress, which looks out over on the harbour, replaced the fortifications on the Hoe, begun by Sir Francis Drake in the previous century, as well as the earlier castle on Lambhay Hill.

The Mannamead Inn
The area around this pub takes its name from the ancient fields known as East and West Mannamead.
Ten years after he built the Theatre Royal, John Foulston had his own house built on Townsend Hill, a little to the north of this site. In the 1820s, Mutley Plain was little more than an undeveloped open road. Development took off in the mid 1850s when Messrs Ellery, Fowler and Bennett acquired the two fields known as the Mannameads. Having bought East and West Mannamead they had the land laid out for a series of villas, and, in time, the whole area became known as Mannamead.

The Brittania Inn
This was an existing pub of the same name, which dates from the 1830s, when it was built by the ancestors of the Arctic explorer Captain Scott.
Scott's family was linked with the Services. His grandfather retired from the navy in 1826, buying the Hoegate Street Brewery with his brother. In 1830, grandfather Scott bought Outlands House, near the site of the inn built later that decade.
