Welcome to the page of The Digby Tap, Sherborne. The Digby Tap is an institution in the pub trade (Camra GBG).
(255)

Part of the building is C16 and it became a parish workhouse in 1749. It became the 'Tap House' for the Digby Hotel in 1869 and remained so until the Hotel was sold to The Boys School in 1964. Fortunately, the Pub survived and very little has changed since then.
