The Falcon Inn was situated at 1 Newbury Road. This grade-II listed pub closed in 1950.
My grandmother owned this house up till about 1969 -70.  I stayed there a lot as a kid and remember it very well.  She passed away aged 99 and was forced to sell out, but leading up to that time had been scammed for a lot of her antiques and furniture by the time she died.
