Preston Chronicle 26th March 1831
I have no evidence that Worden was the landlord here other than the evidence in these two pieces from the Preston Chronicle. The sale notice clearly includes 'several barrels of excellent ale', and Worden's occupation as a currier, lends itself to the name of the beerhouse This linkage wasn't uncommon.
Also, the Bay Horse was the only beerhouse ever in Pitt Street.

NARROW ESCAPE
On Saturday, some men were engaged in shunting a wagon,
containing 6 tons of coal, on to a siding of the railway, in Pitt
Street, when the wagon ran off the rails and fell into the yard
beneath, six feet below the level of the railway. It alighted on
a pig sty, from which Mr Christopher Alston of the Bay Horse
Inn, had emerged only an instant before, and killed a sow and
five young pigs
