2017

In March 2017, the pub reverted to its original name of The New Inn. Prior to this it had been operating for a brief while under the name "Harry's".

? - ?

The pub operated for many years under the name The Corridor, presumably referring to its long narrow interior.


1870s-1916

The pub originally dates from the mid 1870s.

Oxford City Council's heritage registry describes the pub's history as follows:

"Built as the New Inn and recorded in Kelly’s Directory of 1877. It was a brewery pub owned by Samuel Allsopp and Sons. Allsopp’s were a very large Burton on Trent brewery in the late 19th century who made use of the developing railway system to establish a network of public houses across England. ...The pub was either rebuilt or refronted in 1916 by the architects Eadle and Meyers, and retains an attractive frontage to the street including parapet gabled returns to the street and faience clad pub frontage."[1]
