The Golden Ball was originally earmarked for closure in 1909 under a scheme aimed at reducing the number of "excess" alcohol licenses, but it was decided not to close the pub then after all. In the end, it lasted until 1954.

It has been suggested that the numbering scheme may have changed and in fact our unidentified pub was in fact the Golden Ball. We need more information before this can be confirmed. That said, marks in the wall between the upstairs windows give the impression that a sign-hanger may have been attached there.
