Trying to trace where Mermaid Yard was in Bilston. Have also tried searching for Mermaid pub but none found. Any help would be appreciated.

Welcome to RootsChat! ;D

The Mermaid gets a mention on this thread:

Which actually links to:
http://www.genuki.org.uk/big/eng/STS/Dir/StaffsPubs1830.html

There's a page devoted to the Old Mermaid in Hitchmough's Black Country Pubs.
