Went in to see the Doc, all he knows is that it was originally part of what is now the hair dressers who collects the ground rent, which says a lot. The Doc says he does have some papers. (but doesm't seem interested in looking them up).
I can't see it ever being a pub, when you consider the number of pubs that were already in Abbey St.
Black Horse (George), Brigade, Lord Nelson, Oak Tree, Red Lion, Swan, Wellington.
Then you had a load of ale houses in the side streets of Abbey St, in the late 1800's and early 1900's. Bank St, Birtwistle St, Black Abbey St, Elephant St, Gillie St, Lee St, Oak St, Pitt St, Warner St,
