The 1885 Kelly’s Directory lists the pub (probably mistakenly) as the Carriers Arms. The building can be traced back to at least 1733 when it was a cottage, garden and smithy. It had became licensed by 1830. The Farriers Arms was purchased by the Little Compton Brewery (Lardner’s) on 28th December 1878 for £700. Todenham is probably the most north-easterly settlement in Gloucestershire.
It is believed that the Farriers Arms has now permanently closed.
