That works.  Makes it explicit for somebody who goes to a pub guide website
(there are many),
spots this one then looks at OSM to find it.  It's not a pub any more.
Otherwise it's possible
to conclude that somebody mapped the building outline but didn't know it
was a pub.  This makes
it clear that whoever mapped it knew that it used to be a pub.

Actually, given my crappy eyesight and monitor, I'd make the X bigger than
the glass.  Or make
it a red diagonal line.  "THIS IS NOT a pub" rather than "This is not A
PUB."

As is the case with some other pubs I've mapped that have closed and been
turned into
residences, the official address retains the pub name.  That is a house
called The Castle
Inn.
