The Wharfinger was located next to the crossroads in Ash Wharf, between Ash Vale and Ash. The pub was originally opened as The Bridge House around 1860 and was a popular venue for gipsy weddings and funerals. According to the Basingstoke Canal Society website the pub closed in August 1983. Since then the site has been used as a display area of used cars by Tolleys Of Ash and is now the showroom for Vale Furnishers.
