From 1875 to 1911, if not earlier and later, there was a Robin Hood pub in Brading on the Isle of Wight. Situated at the then existing Bull Ring, on the corner of New Road and the Mall, the building subsequently housed a working mans club or conservative club before it was eventually demolished. At the site is now planted a nice little garden. Information on publicans etc. for the years 1875-1911 can be found at UK Pub History.[1]Template:PnItemQry
