Croydon pub index
This is named in both the 1871 and 1881 census returns, but in 1871 it is noted as "unlicensed and shut up" and in 1881 it is inhabited by a butcher, so despite the name it may never has opened as a beer retailer. It is listed very near in the census to the entry for the Simla (at 82 Parchmore Road), so it must have been located near there. *
