Closed: Between 1912 and the late-1930s
Old St
grid reference TM 028 621
The Crown is not shown on any available OS map (at least as early as 1885). The 1909 Rates book has "late" added to the pub's listing, so it evidently closed some time between 1912 (the last directory entry found so far) and the 1930s.
