The original name of the pub was The Royal Oak. The Royal Oak can be dated to at least 1752 when it was was left in the will of John Barnes. Its next owner was Isaac Dell Master, whose initials “ID” and the date “1769” can be seen carved in the brickwork alongside the main front window. In 1803 the name changed to the Trooper Alehouse. It is rumoured that the Duke of Wellington met his troops here. The name changed to The Valiant Trooper in 1878.
