Oil painting of Old Cock Inn by local artist Mary Jane Davies (1855-1917). Mary was born in Welshpool and attended art classes at the Powysland School of Art. She painted many local views inspired by old photographs and drawings. Welshpool once had over 80 pubs but many no longer exist. The Cock Inn was located around the bend from St Marys Church opposite the old Powysland Museum up Church Bank. It was a thatched timber-framed building demolished in November 1880. Paentiad olew o Old Cock Inn gan yr artist lleol Mary Jane Davies (1855-1917). Ganed Mary yn y Trallwng a mynychodd ddosbarthiadau celf yn Ysgol Gelf Powysland. Peintiodd lawer o olygfeydd lleol wedi'u hysbrydoli gan hen ffotograffau a darluniau. Ar un adeg roedd gan y Trallwng dros 80 o dafarndai ond nid yw llawer ohonynt yn bodoli mwyach. Lleolid The Cock Inn o amgylch y tro o Eglwys y Santes Fair gyferbyn â hen Amgueddfa Powysland i fyny Church Bank. Adeilad ffrâm bren to gwellt ydoedd a ddymchwelwyd ym mis Tachwedd 1880.
