The following entries are in this format:

Year/Publican or other Resident/Relationship to Head and or Occupation/Age/Where Born/Source.

I think that this Joseph Taylor is my ancestor Joseph William Taylor b 1818 and married to Isabella Anne Gould Norman (b 1815). As always the proof that such a common first name is connected is an issue. However I think this is the pub depicted on your site.
There is an historical image/ engraving of a building on the corner of Great Suffolk Street (1838) in the Southwark local history centre a couple of blocks from the pub. as part of a picture of all the buildings on Blackman Road. in this image it has another storey. And I assume that the current one is a more recent building or that it lost a storey in the war or something. ***
