The Greyhound Inn
The Greyhound Inn, Holyhead Road, is named on the 1889 map. Like the road that passes its front door (the old A5, now B5061) it has given up its name (to the roundabout). It now sells pizza, not ale, though the inn sign (suitably amended) remains.

The former Greyhound Inn
As described in Image some years ago, the old Greyhound Inn here is no more, although the takeaway/delivered pizza business continues to flourish. There have been some minor changes to the building since 2008, including the loss of the porch and its flanking bay windows, and the old pub sign has now gone for a burton.

OS rivet benchmark - Greyhound Island
A slightly clearer photo than Image, and I'd maintain that part of the rivet is still visible. That's not to excuse the clumsy placement of the concrete pad for the fence.

Hare and Hounds pub sign
Of course, when you rename your pub after a rural pursuit you don't count on the sport being banned, do you? Hence this sign, showing a picture of the pub, instead of something more blood-thirsty. Thoroughly modern, to the energy-saving lamp above it.
To be fair, there is a picture on the pub itself, showing an enormous hare in the foreground, a tiny huntsman in a red coat on a horse in the background (that's fox-hunting, surely?), and some tiny specks that might be hounds, in the distance.
