Reproduced from the (1900-01 Ordnance Survey map, without red reference to the Joiners Arms building.

Map abbreviations: PH = Public House

 

The Joiners Arms first appeared on the 1900-1 OS map and is still a well used local pub. The written information below is all I have found to date of 2012. I sure more will turn up in time.
