The Phoenix (http://www.pubsgalore.co.uk/pubs/33681/) is a former name of what is now called Sammy's Bar (http://www.pubsgalore.co.uk/pubs/63260/). (BTW, the map point for Sammy's is on the house next door - the Phoenix map point is correct.) Incidentally, the signage on Sammy's Bar has it as Sammies, but perhaps that's just signwriter illiteracy. (Apologies to any signwriters reading this - it's not meant seriously!)

I'm fairly sure that The Merry Monk (http://www.pubsgalore.co.uk/pubs/33660/) is a previous incarnation of The Olde Bridge Inn (http://www.pubsgalore.co.uk/pubs/58509/), but the only corroboration of this I have been able to find is identical telephone numbers for Merry Monk on www.yourround.co.uk (http://www.yourround.co.uk/Pub/Barnsley/Merry-Monk/S71-5RP.aspx) and for Old Bridge on www.192.com (http://www.192.com/atoz/business/barnsley-s71/public-houses-activities-of/old-bridge-inn/98aef3005e37dfa4e935c3bdfaea731d0231bb5c/ml/). Good enough? (Minor point - the superfluous E in Olde is missing from the Google street view image (https://maps.google.co.uk/maps?q=S71+5RP&hl=en&ll=53.571154,-1.43657&spn=0.007403,0.013797&sll=53.50882,-1.441002&sspn=0.000933,0.001725&t=h&hnear=S71+5RP,+United+Kingdom&z=16&layer=c&cbll=53.571095,-1.436715&panoid=loqqxRAgh9VUa3Ou_7dp_Q&cbp=12,86.67,,1,-1.9), which is later than the photo on PuG. Delete?)

Ok we have removed the Phoenix and updated the name of Sammies (http://www.pubsgalore.co.uk/pubs/63260/) as that is clearly what it says.

Also updated the name of The Old Bridge Inn (http://www.pubsgalore.co.uk/pubs/58509/) and removed the Merry Monk as that sounded like good enough evidence to me.
