It's shown on this old OS map from about the end of the 19th century. interactive map
The 1921 OS map shows the inn at this location. No pub is shown on sheets from 1927 onwards, so presumably it closed between those dates. The pub is listed in the Rate Book that was in use from 1910 to the 1930s, but at some point has been marked as de-licensed, adding credence to this estimated closure era.
