John Launder, the landlord in 1903, moved to the Pear Tree Inn, Wanswell.

The Gloucester Journal reported on 10th March 1906 that there was a licensed house opposite (Berkeley Hunt) and the premises was not convenient for police supervision (according to Sergeant Hoskins). The Black Horse Inn offered sleeping accommodation for travellers. The licence was referred to the Compensation Authority.

It was closed down following the closure of the cheese market in 1910 and was finally demolished in 1960.

A 1960’s house now occupies the site at 1 Salter Street.
