Both the church and the pub are Grade I listed. The Bells of Peover public house is believed to date back to 1839. The main building as accessed across a cobbled yard and through an entrance which is covered in wisteria and is full of character. The building is very old and the ‘Olde Worlde’ feel is carried on through the premises. This is a unique pub restaurant atmosphere that is rarely seen and often copied from this original. The history of the pub goes back centuries and was used by Generals Eisenhower and Patton in the 1940’s.
