The Robin Hood at 39 Bristol Road in Gloucester first appears in the records in 1870. It closed in 2008, when it licence was revoked.[1]
Information on publicans etc. for 1870 to 1939 can be found at Pub Wiki.[2] In 1927 the pub's address was listed as 43 Bristol Road,[3] which is most likely a mistake. The building at 39 Bristol Road now houses Hing's, a Chinese restaurant. The Robin Hood is included on the 25" O.S. maps listed below with the abbreviation 'P.H.' (public house) only.
