Markel Lane on old map

This pub stood somewhere under the present Buttermarket Centre, probably in Market Lane.

The Borough Police licensed premises register (1903-1923) shows that a beat bobby would have walked past it between the Grand Hotel and the Falcon (now Bowman's). Apparently there was an old gaol located in Market Lane.
