At the junction with Silver Walk and first recorded in 1805 but on a site a little to the west (right) - present building dates from 1934. Pub now called "The Clipper" - has in the past been called "Mermaids Galley Alehouse", "Ship York" and "Ship Tavern". Now missing the three doors that are covered by advertising boards / menus and the sign 'Open all day' was where a good image of a sailing ship was built into the brickwork.
