About the Pub
A 'Chef and Brewer' branded pub-restaurant, near the River Trent, with parts of the building dating from the 14th century. The first reference to a pub is in 1787, and in 1858 it is recorded as being the Punch Bowl. This large dining pub has lots of nooks and crannies, low original beams and real fires in winter. Cosy intimate dining or larger parties in specific areas. Formerly a Shipstones pub.
Historic Interest
Originally a farmhouse on the South bank of the Trent, linked by a foot ferry from the Meadows. The ferry stopped in 1864 and was superseded by a toll bridge in 1870. The building became the Wilford Coffee House in the 18th century. Later named the Punch Bowl, it became the Ferry House in 1860 (Whitworth 2010). A Grade II listed building (No. 1270746), it is in Nottingham City Council's Wilford Village Conservation Area. The Ferry Inn was registered as an Asset of Community Value on the 10th March 2016 and was nominated by the Nottingham Branch of CAMRA. "Public house. Late C17 and early C18, with alterations and additions C19 and C20. Brick painted and rendered, with substantial remains of timber framing, and slate and plain tile roofs. Rendered plinth. The building comprises 2 houses and an adjoining outbuilding, joined end to end. Central range, C17 and C18, 2 storeys, 2 window range, has brick front with dentillated eaves.
