In 1840 a wager of £2 was arranged here for a foot race between Carpenter and Smith and in 1842 an inquest was held at the pub.
In 1907 the Police objected to the license, but it was renewed by the Justices. The Police appear to have got their man the next year though, as the pub closed c1908 and afterwards the premises was Adams the baker, then Eastmans butchers, then a hardare shop before being demolished during World War Two. | |||
