West Berkshire HER MWB20718: The White House changed its name to The Narrow Boat in the early 21st century; The Narrow Boat name is documented by 2004. Do not invent an exact rename date — use 2004 as an upper-bound rename window end for the predecessor period.

A West Berkshire Council application received on 29 January 2004 names The Narrowboat as a public house on London Road. (Strong public-house anchor for the successor identity.)
