Dolphin Inn, Historic pub in Barbican, Plymouth, England

The three-story Dolphin Inn features a slate mansard roof and white stucco facade with plaster reliefs depicting dolphins along its exterior walls.

The Tolpuddle Martyrs found refuge at the Dolphin Inn upon their return from Australian exile in 1838, during Mr. Morgan's time as landlord.

Artist Beryl Cook selected this establishment as a subject for numerous paintings, leading to its appearance in the BBC animated series Bosom Pals.

The pub maintains its tradition of serving draught Bass directly from wooden barrels, earning recognition in the Campaign for Real Ale Guide.

The pub sign design draws inspiration from the 1992 video game Ecco the Dolphin, featuring artwork by fantasy artist Boris Vallejo.
