About the business
Before World War I, these premises were partly occupied by the Golden Bee refreshment rooms. For many years after, the building was a dentist’s surgery. Shrieve’s House, next door, is one of the town’s best-known buildings. It was rebuilt and enlarged after a fire in 1595. The best-known figure associated with the house is the ironmonger John Woolmer. In 1664, he obtained a new charter for the town and was Stratford’s first mayor.
