Originally opened in the 1930s as the Stadium Hotel and public house and for many years ideally situated for those wishing a quick tipple before or after a match at the Goldstone Ground which was ten minutes walk to the east. The ground's closure in 1997 was the beginning of the end for the pub which continued operating until 2015, the last six years as the Atlas, see Image, until finally closing. The building was converted into a small convenience store run by the Co-Op which opened in 2016.
