Looks like it Peter? The Malt Shovel has been closed for a while and the Bowling Green is long gone. The Old Dyers, the Broomfield and the Black Horse are still going strong though.

I very seldom travel that way but the Butts Retreat ("Summerland") appeared to be closed when I passed it yesterday evening.
