Description
The town of Saltcoats and this Wetherspoon pub take their name from the salt cots on the seashore, used for curing fish. Saltcoats originated from a small community living in huts on the seashore, earning a living by fishing or boiling seawater in small kettles or pans (salt ‘cots’), mainly for curing fish. These early origins are recalled in the Burgh of Saltcoats seal which features a salt pan in its design.
