The Ancient Ram Inn is a late medieval building in Wotton-under-Edge, Gloucestershire, described as having been remodelled in the mid to late 16th century and recorded as a Grade II* listed former pub. Some sources note a traditional claim that the building was owned by the local St. Mary's Church when first built, though that ownership claim is presented in secondary accounts rather than as documented fact in the provided material. In contemporary popular culture and paranormal media the Inn is frequently presented as haunted. The site is associated with a Ghost Adventures episode (season 2, episode 8) according to Wikidata, demonstrating its inclusion in televised paranormal investigation programming, and it was the subject of a Spanish-language radio segment which referred to the location as "la pensión de los 20 fantasmas" (the guesthouse of the 20 ghosts), indicating a circulating claim or folkloric tradition of multiple apparitions. The supplied sources do not provide detailed first-hand witness statements, names of alleged entities, dates or descriptions of specific incidents, or investigative findings; thus reporting is limited to the site's reputation in media and folkloric accounts. Architecturally, the building's Grade II* listing and medieval origins contribute to its heritage significance in Gloucestershire. Its prominence in paranormal media and popular accounts further marks it as a locus of modern haunted-house folklore, though explanatory theories for alleged activity are not presented in the provided materials.
