The pub is shown on this OS town plan from about 1880 (larger map).
The pub was listed as the Cow and Pail Inn in the 1932 Kelly's Directory, but as three separate properties in 1939. It seems likely that the Kelly's entries from 1912 onwards may have been for a different pub of the same name, as the 1909 Rating book shows it as "Cow & Pail (late)". Unless it re-opened at a later date (it's not clear what period these books were valid for).
It's also listed in "Rope Lane" (1830 & 1844) - presumably an earlier name for Rope Walk.
