King Alfred Inn, Burrowbridge, Bridgwater, Somerset, TA7 0RB

The King Alfred Inn occupies a prominent roadside position on the A361 in the village of Burrowbridge. It stands alongside the River Parrett in the Somerset levels and is popular with walkers, cyclists and bird watchers. Burrowbridge has a population exceeding 500 and has historic connections with King Alfred the Great, from which the pub gets its name. A historic site in the village of Burrow Mump is the notable hill which overlooks Southlake Moor. The site is a scheduled monument with an incomplete Grade II listed church on the hilltop.

The village lies at the halfway point between the county town of Taunton and Street. In turn, this leads to plenty of passing trade.

The King Alfred is a Grade II listed building dating back to the 17th century. It comprises a two storey detached property with rendered elevations under a pitched tile roof. There is a single story rear extension which houses the former skittle alley.

The property is more briefly described as follows:
