The name varies from Marquis of Granby to Marquess of Granbys Head to just Granbys Head, and the last entry I have is in the 1861 census where it is similar to the Green Dragon, i.e. by 1869 this part of Villiers street is no longer listed in the directory and Charing Cross Hotel Shades is now listed at 1 Villiers street.
