About Us
Welcome to Ye Olde Eight Bells Shoppe, situated in the ancient borough of Christchurch. The Olde Eight Bells Shoppe was built in 1450 and is a stone throw away from the Priory Church, which was built in the late 11th century.
It is rumoured that there were 7 bells in the Priory and after the Bell Ringers finished there rehearsal they came to this building, which was a public house, to have a drink. This building has been known as the eighth bell ever since.
Ye Olde Eight Bells was converted from a pub to a shop in 1908. Since 1908 it has served Christchurch with many different trades. Over the past 2 decades it has been a Gift Shop. At the beginning of the year 2000 Ian & Anita brought the building and the business.
