History

The site on which the pub is located was formerly a house occupied by Joseph Pearson in 1832. From 1833 to around 2000 it was the County Tavern public house. The first landlord recorded is Thomas Harrison. {{cite book |date=1834 |title=History, Directory and Topography of Nottingham |page=96 |publisher=W.

In 1905, William Wilson, the landlord since September 1903, was declared bankrupt.{{cite news |author= |title=Nottingham Publican's failure |url=http://www.britishnewspaperarchive.co.uk/viewer/bl/0001896/19051011/086/0003 |newspaper=Nottingham Journal |location=England |date=11 October 1905 |access-date=7 April 2017 |via=British Newspaper Archive |url-access=subscription }}

It was rebuilt by Basil Baily and Albert Edgar Eberlin in 1933 for the Home Brewery Company.{{cite news |author= |title=Alterations to premises |url=http://www.britishnewspaperarchive.co.uk/viewer/bl/0000321/19330213/018/0005 |newspaper=Nottingham Evening Post |location=England |date=13 February 1933 |access-date=7 April 2017 |via=British Newspaper Archive |url-access=subscription }}
