It was reported that on Monday 30th September 1850, James Flowers, landlord of a beerhouse near the railway terminus, was charged by the police of suffering beer to be consumed in his house after ten p.m.
Pleading guilty to the fact that beer was consumed, Mr. Flowers explained that those present were railway officials lodging at the house, and they were being treated with an extra glass in celebration of his recent marriage. Since the house had previously well conducted, the magistrates dismissed the case.
(Is James an error for Robert or could this report apply to a different house?)

Temporary licence granted Tuesday 7th February 1905 and licence referred to the Licensing Committee on the grounds of redundancy. .

Licence surrendered 1936.
