Advertised Saturday, 29th October 1842, To be Let. Described as a well-known and much-frequented Free Public House and well calculated for a Boarding and Lodging House. Immediate Possession.

Conveyed 17th June 1884 (As SARSONS HEAD) from George Lucas, William James Steward, John Baker and Jane Parker Ferrier
(Ferrier & Co) to Donald Steward and Henry Staniforth Patteson.

On Thursday 2nd March 1905, an application was made to create a doorway from Church Plain into a room which was used as a market room on Wednesdays and Saturdays. Without the door the only access was through the bar. The new door would replace a window and give easier access. The Chief Constable had no objection and the alteration was sanctioned.

Premises used as an insurance office by 1996.
