The name appears to have varied more than that of any other public house in the Wokingham
district. After the change to the New Warren House in 1817, it changed back to simply Warren
House before 1820, only to become the Warren Inn by 1824. In the 1830s and early 1840s it was

remained in use until recently. Today it is once again the Warren Inn, although there is no evidence
that the traditional functions of inn-keeping were ever carried out there!
