There was a pub called the White Stag on North Street not far from the Eagle Tavern. It was demolished several years back now (I think it was near where the Bagel Nash premises are). I wonder if that could perhaps be the pub name being questioned.

The White Stag was more of a white elephant pub as had it had two shops at the front of it on North st and the side which was Stamford st. Behind it all the houses had been demolished. This was in the fifties and sixties.

I know the New Roscoe definitely isn't but while not far away I didn't think the original was on North Street either

The original Roscoe Pub was at the bottom of Chapeltown Road, number 29, opposite the Post Office.
