Ale enthusiasts decide spoons can’t be licked
Two hundred and eighty Wetherspoon pubs have been acclaimed for the quality of their real ale – by members of the Campaign for Real Ale (CAMRA).
The pubs are listed in CAMRA’s publication The Good Beer Guide 2026, the UK’s best-selling beer and pub guide.
Pub history
Wells is the ‘City of Bells’. The bells from St Thomas, St Cuthbert and the cathedral all ring on the hour. Wells Cathedral has the world’s heaviest ring of 10 bells. The famous astronomical clock in the north transept of the cathedral is considered to be the second-oldest clock in the British Isles. When it strikes every 15 minutes, jousting knights rush around the clock, while the ‘quarter Jack’ bangs the quarter hours with his heels.
