Old pub in Stoney

[Chocolate fireguard]

I cycled through Stoney today and saw that the old pub by the chippy has been/is being demolished.
It hasn't been a pub for a lot of years, and I am struggling to think what it was called. Grouse? Pheasant?
Does anybody remember?

It used to be next to last in our 7 pub crawl through Eyam and Stoney when we camped above Hanging Flat Mine in the 60s.

The car park opposite the chippy is called "Royal Oak Mews" and Wikipedia says "A road was blasted through Middleton Dale in 1830, and in 1840 an octagonal toll house was built in the village, now a fish and chip shop which stands opposite the Royal Oak public house".

It seems the pub started life as The Boot and Shoe, but the name changed in the 19th century.
The website "Lost Pubs in Derbyshire" lists it, and leads to a brief description that says it closed in the early 1960s.
I think we were there a bit later than that, but certainly before 1970.

There is more information for those interested here:

Stoney Middleton (Derbyshire) - Inns and Public Houses, 1822-1934

and judging from the menu on the left of that page anyone researching Stoney history will have a much easier time than is the case for most places.
