Later in the pub's first year, the Coventry Herald reported burglars seen between the Seven Stars and the Hertford Arms.
In Jopson's Coventry Mercury 17th January 1830 it is advertised To Let. In another advertisement for its sale by auction, in June 1830, the pub's location was described as "at the conflux of the Old and New Roads, on Whitley Common".
There is only one directory listing, in 1835.
It had closed by November 1840, when two men were charged with trespass in the garden of a house,"late the Hertford Arms". Did the name come from the Earls of Hertford? | |||
