Looking at this large scale town plan (1882, reprinted 1909) , it seems that the Bugle Inn was in Bugle Lane just off Hill's Lane (see top centre of the zoomed in view).

@AlanBoyd Thanks for the link to the map.

I'm familiar with the location of Bugle Lane after researching my 2xGtGf Edmund Jones who lived in Barker Street (1841), Bridge Street (1851, 1861 & 1871). However, the address of the Bugle is listed as 7 Hills Lane in the 1901 Census and Shropshire Archives have it listed as Hill's Lane too. I think there was frontage to both Hill's Lane and Bugle Lane.

Bugle Lane was also known as Payne's Lane and Little Lane and was demolished in the 1930s. Hill's Lane was also known as Knockin Street.
