About

In 1688, Falmouth became a packet station, or port, for handling overseas mail and distributing messages across the British Empire. This led to the building of a special fleet of fast, lightly armed ships known as Falmouth Packets, and the heroics of packet captains, such as John Bull. Falmouth remained the leading packet station until the mid 19th century. A granite memorial to the packet service stands in the middle of Bodmin Moor.

This spacious Wetherspoons pub is located in the heart of Falmouth and occupies a prominent position on the Moor. Excellent value ales and food.
