Alas not Mr Dozen, and as Al suggests I imagine it was still known as The Greyhound way back then. However all is not lost, you have indeed correctly identified the first word even if your shot ricocheted off the post and then the keeper's ar$e ! Perhaps your recent run of misfortune is coming to an end ? :)

Frayed knot ! No legs of any description whatsoever. When No 6 opened, The Golden Hart was still the Long Bar, with the notorious Bar Acuda upstairs. It only became TGH in 1973.

Any chance no. 5 could be the North Devon Inn?

No, but you had me scratching my head over that one, had to look it up. Still not much the wiser, seems it must have been close to the Look-in youth club in Paul Street, where I used to go watching bands including the Empty Vessels.

What you are after is a City Centre pub, whose name has remained unchanged, and a firm favourite with quite a few City supporters, Mustang.
