it was in the early 1970's that the New Inn became the Hearts of Oak..

I have access to a few of the True Heart, and one on Drybrook Rd c 1920 showing New Inn yard, before Overbrook Garage arrived.

New Inn, The Cross (Hearts of Oak) GL17 9EE

The New Inn was renamed the Hearts of Oak some years ago and is still trading. The pub is set back from the road at the centre of the village. Not to be confused with the True Heart which is no longer a pub. The Hearts of Oak is a nicely proportioned rendered building with a central door flanked by two bay windows.
