Traced to as early as 1850 but closed in the 2000s and is now a private residence called "Creek House."

Caitlin Doyle tells me the following:- "The building in the photo is near the "Albion Tavern." The road that it's on is more commonly known as the Upper Brents. I think on some maps this road is also called Church Road."

Now being used as two residential premises, one called Creek House and the other Willow Tap Cottage.

 

I will be adding further information as time allows, but with my site getting ever larger, time spent on each pub is being watered down unfortunately. Your information, photos, old or new and licensee names and dates is much appreciated.
