In the 1990s, the pub had a good reputation for music. Though bands played in a cellar room which would have been a terrible death-trap had there been a fire.

It was demolished and replaced by a car showroom.

At a Petty Sessions hearing on 29 September 1860 The Albion Mills was refused a new spirit licence. Out of the twenty four applications at the time only three establishments were granted licences.

The pub finally got a full license on February 2nd 1953.
