We don't show a photo of the pub at the request of the current resident.
The Stag is shown as a beerhouse on OS maps at least as late as 1958; by the 1979 sheet it's marked as "Stag House" so must have closed between those dates. A planning application lodged in February 1975 refers to the "ex Stag public house", further narrowing down the closure date.
Message from Danny Downes: Please be aware that the landlord of the Stag Inn in 1921 was John Darnford Block. He was also the landlord of the Black Horse Inn, Whepstead in 1911.
