Ribchester Arms

Location
Ribchester lies nestling against the banks of the River Ribble in the county of Lancashire in the North West of England. It would seem that prior to the Romans arrival that there was a settlement here and investigations are continuing. The Romans though built a fort here as the area was of strategic importance on the banks of the river. At the time it was not Ribchester but Bremetannacum Veteranorum. Today there is a Roman Museum situated above the remains of the headquarters of that Roman fort. Ribchester's three-arched bridge, built in 1774, stands astride the old Roman ford. General Agricola established the fort in AD 80 and it was set on a network of roads leading out to Chester, Manchester, Lancaster and York. Ribchester is approx 10 miles from Preston and is accessed from the main A59 trunk road. The pub is located on the main road into the village and holds a prominent position in rural surroundings.
