The Bear is the oldest pub in Oxford (1242), and is also one of the smallest - this venue is not for the tall as the ceiling is very, very low. Most remember the pub for its collection of ties displayed on the wall.

Interesting Facts
The Bear Inns walls are covered with over 5000 ties. The collection was started in 1954 when 3 to 4 inches of a tie was donated in exchange for two pints. The Bear Inn is one of the pubs frequented by Inspector Morse in Death is my neighbour.
