I tried to find more information about the Roe Buck Inn, such as when it was built and demolished, but there doesn't seem to be anything, other than what the photos tell us - that it was built sometime before 1900.
It can be found in Ordnance Survey maps from 1883
The 1900 pictures show a lovely double-fronted building with six windows on the upper floor, but by the 1940's it had been reduced by half with only three windows on the upper floor.
Later pictures show a road which is now A448 Stratford Road, and it is my guess that the Roebuck was demolished in the early 1960s to make the road wider in anticipation of more traffic once the M5 was built.
If you have any other information to add, please let me know.
