Licence first granted 1888 under a special agreement between the magistrates and Mr. Winton that no liquor was to be sold, except to persons who had paid to go into the dancing saloon.
The licence of the GRAPES was transferred to this house.

Mr. Goode was granted the licence in 1896, apparently having purchased the property without being informed of the covenant.

House known as Winton's Rooms to at least 1899.

At the Licensing Sessions, Thursday 28th September 1899 - It was stated Mr. Winton had provided meals, but did not do a restaurant business on such a large scale as Mr. Goode. Mr. Goode had supplied 1,200 meals on Bank Holiday with receipts for £39 odd, whilst the total drinks receipt was £4 9s 3d. The daily bar trade was only £3 or £4 a day, which included cigars, cigarettes and mineral waters. Casual drinking did not amount to more than 3s per day. A tea and coffee trade, with bread and butter, &c. was also done. Mr. John Goode said that he carried on the business along with his brother. When he took over the business he had understood that casual drinking was permissible during the hours the rooms were open for legitimate drinking. On the day after Bank Holiday £40 10s had been taken for food and £3 7s for bar trade. There was no outside drinking, no Sunday trading, or drink sold off the premises. Since May 1899 his beer bill was under £40 for the whole of the season. Licence granted to Mr. Goode on the same terms as originally stipulated.
