The Bear and Billet is a public house at 94 Lower Bridge Street, Chester, Cheshire, England. It is recorded in the National Heritage List for England as a designated Grade I listed building. The building has been described as "the finest 17th-century timber-framed town house in Chester", and "one of the last of the great timber-framed town houses in England". It stands on the west side of Lower Bridge Street to the north of the Bridgegate. ==History==
The house was built in 1664 as the town house of the Earls of Shrewsbury who held control of the nearby Bridgegate.〔 It was also probably used as a grain warehouse because in the gable are double doors and a bracket for a hoist. The building became an inn in the 18th century, although it continued to be owned by the Shrewsbury family until 1867.〔 Its name is taken from the heraldic device of the Earls that consist of a bear tied to a billet (or stake).
