The pub is shown on this OS town plan from about 1880 (larger map).
Now a shop, the pub is listed as the "Marquis of Cornwall", in Great Colman Street in the 1952 Kelly's Directory. We assume the two are actually one and the same. The Great Coleman Street property is not listed in the 1956 Kelly's Directory.
It's listed in St Margaret Street in 1830, 1839, 1841 & 1851.
