No. The Three Pigeons, Nesscliffe is a different PH.  I've had a few meals in there with my parents in the 1980s. It served good lunches then  :)

The one Barbara is interested in is in Oswestry itself.

Thanks, I'm thousands of miles to the west, but found that on Google, so I thought I'd give it a try.

John Garland, 30, house painter and innkeeper, is living at 4, 5 Cambria (?) Square, public house, in 1871 - before that change in tenancy, or 7 April is date of paper not date of change?

Cambria(n) Square is listed just before Albert Road on the entry. I think it was adjacent or part of the road.  The current Google street view has the Three Pigeons on  the corner of Albert Road and Castlefields: https://goo.gl/maps/6gCDe76NQ9v6beDC6

PS - After looking at the Google maps last night, I went for a 'drive' along the 6 miles of the A483 from Oswestry to the village where I grew up. It was really nostalgic as I'd not been there for over 10 years. The trees had really grown in some places!  As it was taken in Oct 2018, it was up to date.
