View 17th century plaque linked to Grenville family

1000-1300 Trio and Bond Hair Studio EX39 2HW – once part of the Three Tuns pub. The overmantel on the chimney breast, discovered during renovations, has at its centre a man in late Stuart costume, and the Grenville coat of arms with its three clarions. This was earlier believed to have been Sir Richard Grenville’s grandson, Bevil Grenville, who owned property on Bideford Quay and died fighting for the royalists in the Civil War. However, it is now believed that it was originally made to sit above a fireplace in the Grenville’s house at Stowe, near Kilkhampton, built by Bevil’s son, John, in the late 1670s. Stowe was demolished after little more than sixty years and its contents used in other buildings, so it may have come to Bideford then. Trio and Bond Hair Studio First Floor, 8A The Quay EX39 2HW. This is a busy hair salon and will have clients, please be considerate of the working environment. Stairs to first floor, no lift. No booking required. Thank you Trio and Bond.
