1841 2 entries, the address for both is 'Bridge Street' - both are added to the page until further research is completed ***
1851 Address is 'Bridge Street'
1861 Address is '12 Bridge Street'
1871 Address is 'Star public house, Bridge Street'
1881 Address is 'Star Inn Bridge Street'
I believe that William Bird was the publican is 1841, and we know that the Phipp family were the landlords in 1871, but where the Phipps were in 1851 and 1861 I can't tell. It may be that they were at a 'Star Tap' in 1841 and took over as soon as William Bird left.    ***
