Description
Shown on Ordnance Survey second edition. In the 1850s Thomas Davison rented the Pickwick Inn, a 7 roomed public house with cellars, stable and brewery producing 20 half-barrels. William Price worked the brewery from 1870 until 1874 under its new name, the White Lion. It could now produce 25 half-barrels. Further improvements were made in 1882. In the late 1880s and early 1890s Henry Davidson brewed there, producing 34 barrels of beer a week. Brewing ceased here by 1899 when Matthew Wood, South Shields brewer, bought the pub. The White Lion closed in 1909.

Description
Shown on Ordnance Survey second edition. Originally known as the Travellers Rest, renamed Kings Arms probably in 1878 during rebuilding.

It closed in the late 1980s but was reopened by Legendary Yorkshire Heros company in 1990 when the name was chaned to O'Dwyer's, the Cuckoo (a 19th century nickname) and the Magpie in 1994. 1998 derelict.
