I wonder if this later became the Yates Wine Lodge. What year are we talking?

They were the same pub Polly. I have an old directory from 1894 (just a year after the Old Inns list) and it is listed in there as Yates Bros 33/35 Lord Street.
Blackburn also had a Britannia Inn on the bottom end of Penny Street, which disappeared in the early 1900's (that's also listed in the Old Inns book).
