Located opposite Newport Masonic Hall http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1599573 this building on the corner of Ruperra Street looks like it used to be a pub. It was. Kelly's Directory of Monmouthshire (1901 edition) shows that it was the Masonic public house, proprietor Mrs Annie Jones. Its address at that time was 110 Dock Street. The addition of Lower followed the building of the Kingsway Centre in the 1970s which severed Dock Street into two disconnected parts.
