| These premises have been known by different names during their history: | FROM | TO | NAME |

The pub is highlighted, two doors to the right of Whitefriars' Gate in Much Park Street, pictured here for the Godiva Procession of 1907. To the left of the old gatehouse is the Rose Inn.
Was this a combination of two pub names? I can only imagine that the half moon was a simple, easily recognised, pictoral sign.
In 1756 eight soldiers were billeted here and it is mentioned in 1800. | |||
