Before taking the Crown & Anchor title, this pub, in Friendly Street, may have been known as the New Crown and Old Wagon. The name Crown & Anchor may be traced to 1807. Messrs SH Ward rebuilt the premises in 1908; the owners prior to Wards included Joseph Bradley�s Soho Brewery Co Ltd. The Crown & Anchor was conveyed to Doncaster Corporation on May 15, 1972 and later demolished for the erection of a multi-storey car park and road improvements.
