The Old Mealmarket Inn was established in 1874; the building is marked as an Inn on the OS Map 1892-93. Various alterations to the openings of the building have been undertaken. The adjoining earlier 19th century 2-storey rubble arcaded former cartshed range (previously listed as Old Meal Market, Newmills Road), which was marked as a smithy on the OS Map 1852-53, has recently been severely modernised as part of the adjoining supermarket complex to the right. 2 red sandstone rubble gatepiers from former entrance have been retained in isolation, in modern landscaping.
