The pub, which was on the main road in the valley near St. Marys Crossing, was operating in 1856 and, indeed, as late as 1972. It is included on the ‘Inns of the Cotswolds Map’ published by John Bartholomew & Sons in the mid 1970’s and compiled by K.C. Jordan. It closed down in the mid 1970’s and was converted into maisonettes. There is nothing visible to indicate that the building was once a pub. It is called Carpenters.
