The Berkeley Arms, Wymondham, by Brian Hollingshead, 1975
Wymondham's remaining public house was renovated during the autumn of
1999, and re-opened that December. It is named in honour of the Berkeley
family, who owned land in Wymondham and Edmondthorpe from the 14th to the
17th century, but it was previously called The Angel Inn.
Brian Hollingshead has contributed sketches to The Leicester Mercury
and The Melton Times as well as publishing books of local interest.
Further examples of his work may be seen at his

Mowbray. Tel 01664 480220.
