A pub named the Robin Hood existed in Cossall, Nottinghamshire, in the 1880s. The building, still standing c. 75 m N of Newton's Lane, is now known as Bridge Farm
The pub is included on a 6" O.S. map of the area published in 1884, based on a survey carried out 1879–80. It is not included on any of the other early O.S. maps listed below. Inquests into deaths from mining-related accidents were held in the pub in 1880 an 1882, when it was referred to as the 'Robin Hood Inn'.[1] Template:PnItemQry
