Apparently , according to posts on Leodis, it was St Alban's Vicarage before it was a pub. Ah. See - if there'd been tinterweb when that happened there'd have been an outcry. 'T'old Vicarage?

Re: The last throes of the Shaftesbury.
There has been a couple of planning apps to build a care home.
Work has recently started to clear to site which was VERY overgrown
There is an excavator inside the compound.
8 years or so since closure/demolition.
