This pub had many names over the years, which tends not to be a good sign. It became one of the pubs run by the Firkin Brewery, and was known as The Forester & Firkin. Later it was renamed The Firkin. When photographed in May 2010, it had closed down and was available to rent. Apparently it had closed some time prior to then. As at the end of October 2010, the pub was still on the market for letting.
