My Great grandfather, George Robinson was landlord of this pub from 1911. See attached photo of him with his two sons on the right and young daughter, Dorothy who died aged 9. The earlier photo shows the publican as H. Willard. You can see tram lines in the earlier picture. Full electrification of this part of the network was not complete until 1908 which dates this picture to approx 1908-1913. *

George Robinson was landlord,  with his two sons on the right and young daughter, Dorothy who died aged 9 - in about 1917.
