The Electric Arms was situated on Back-of-the-Walls. Some of the walls were dated back some 570 years ago. It was used by various trades before becoming the Wheatsheaf Tap Pub in 1850. It became the Electric Arms in 1897. It ceased to be a beer house in 1925 but the landlord continued to live there. It was demolished in 1961 due to it being unfit for occupation.
