PubAid Community Awards Finalist 2024

Much more than just a premiere local sports venue, The New Inn offers something for the whole family & community, for which the pub was hugely honoured to be nominated for the Pub Hero Award for Swindon in 2024, with the award-ceremony itself held in The House of Commons.

A little bit of history...

Don't let the name fool you. The New Inn has been quenching the thirst of local people for well over 180 years - and looks set to carry on doing the same for many years to come.

Always popular, the exact date when it served its first pint is not known, though it was certainly open by 1844 when it was bought by Richard White of the Star Brewery which, like the New Inn, stood in Swindon Road.

By 1875 the Star Brewery was in serious decline and the pub had been sold. Within another nine years it had been sold on again, but when Arkell's acquired it on 22nd December 1884 it turned out to be a Christmas present that has so far remained 'in the family' for well over a century.

The New Inn is one of the more unassuming members of that family, as popular as ever with locals who appreciate its down-to-earth modesty.
