It's shown on this old OS map from 1884 (interactive map).
This beerhouse and shop can be seen on an OS map of 1886. It's not marked as such on the 1892-1905 sheet, so may have closed by then. The only building now in the area appears fairly modern (and doesn't match the old building's footprint) so the pub has evidently been demolished along with most other buildings on the old map.
