Crown and anchor beer house, Yorkley (General)

In the 1861 census my ancestor James Smith is recorded at Bailey Hill as 'Crown & anker beer house sawer'. He is known to have been a timber sawyer, so possibly ran the Crown and Anchor on the side.

So far as I am aware there is no Crown and Anchor pub at Yorkley now. Is there any knowledge of one in the past?

Thanks in advance
