I wonder which pub he was a landlord of?

The next household entry in the 1841 census of Cawsand is another publican: Henry Chapell. In 1844 Pigots directory, Henry Chapell had the Pilot Boat pub.

Other inns & pubs listed in Cawsand in 1844 Pigots: 

The Barley Sheaf - Richard Jope. he is a publican in Town Place in the 1841 census.

The Ship - Thomas Trist. 

At first pass I don't see Thomas Trist in the 1841 census so it could be that William Oliver had the Ship at that time.

Ok thanks also noticed mention of 'not in county'

From GenUKI:
MAKER parish, which occupies a great part of the bold promontory and peninsula, which juts out into the English Channel on the west side of Plymouth Sound, and the south side of the harbour of Hamoaze, opposite Stonehouse and Devonport, is partly in Cornwall, and contains 2725 inhabitants and 2260 acres of land, of which 1156 souls and about 1320 acres are in VAULTERSHOME tithing, which is in Devonshire, and includes the beautiful seat of Mount Edgcumbe, the parish church, the village of Kingsand, and part of Millbrook.

Kingsand was still in Devon until 1844 and the boundary stone between the two counties is still opposite the Halfway Hotel, separating Turk Town (Cawsand) and the North Rockers (Kingsand). Intense rivalry between the two villages continued well into the 20th century.
