It can be seen on this old OS map from about the end of the 19th century. interactive map
The Marlborough Head is shown as a beerhouse on OS maps at least as late as 1957, it seems just to be a private house by the 1980 sheet, so presumably closed between those dates.
Its history is still remembered in the house's name: Tavern Cottage.
