Formerly the COACH & HORSES - pre 1890

It was said that on 26th August 1900, Daniel Armstrong had served three drunken persons. Police-constable Howell had seen three persons ejected from the GRAPES public-house and go into the Duke of Fife. By the time the constable entered the house, each had been served a pint of beer by the barman, James Crome. Charwoman Martha Branham and porter Edward Turner were witnesses and along with the barman, said that the men appeared to be sober.
On Monday 3rd September 1900, the Bench convicted Armstrong and fined him 5s and 16s costs, licence not endorsed..

When the licence was transferred to William Pace, May 1902, attention was brought to the annoyance that had hitherto existed, not from the music hall, but from the people leaving it. The magistrates warned the new tenant that complaints had been made and it had been considered whether the licence should be withdrawn or not.

On Monday 29th February 1904 the application for music licence renewal was refused.

Market Day extension granted 1956

Licence transferred to a house on the Fairstead Estate following closure 1965.
