You could do a search here at the Land Register office

Re: Why does the Stag face the way it does?
 

Quite true Mez,
The Ribble bus would come bown Maden St turn right at the clock and left at the Stag on to Henry St and then on to Dill Hall Lane - that was certainly from about 1955/6 through to Jan 1965. The bus often had to stop because my son or my dog were laid in the road. My mother ran the confectioners shop there by the clock during that period.
