grid reference TM 170 440

The pub is shown on this OS town plan from about 1880 (old OS map

This pub was listed at 1 and 2 Fore Hamlet before 1891 and also mentioned as being in Duke Street.

Previously on this site was a pub called the Cock, which has been dated back to 1609, but we do not know if any of this survived to be a part of the later building. The nearby junction was also once known as Cock corner.

The property was not listed in 1932, but the pub was listed in the 1903-1923 Borough Police licensed premises register, so must have closed after 1923.

This pub has since been demolished.
