Thanks Heddwch
I know it was refrerred to in a report in 1852 as the "Globe Public House" and as you say, I have found refrences to it as the Globe Inn and in 1900 the Globe Hotel. I wonder why it was called the the "Globe".

In 1901 my family member George Griffiths was at Globe Inn, High Street, Pontypridd.
It was subsequently run by another family member David William Evans.
I have been told ownership remained in our family until the 1950s although we did not run it after 1916.

My grandmother was his granddaughter.  She is still alive and tells me that he was generous host in the pub but a terrible businessman.
