28 Havelock Road in 1861


On Monday 13th May 1861, beerhouse keeper Frances (Francis?) Brown was charged of having the Cremorne Tavern open at a quarter to twelve on the previous morning. Constable Spurgeon had observed Mrs. Brown standing at the door and upon approaching her, she slammed the door in his face and refused him admission for several minutes. The constable observed five or six persons leaving by the back door. When admitted to the house, Mr. Brown called him a d****** nuisance and threatened to punch his head.

At the licensing Sessions held 2nd September 1862 the application for a (full) licence by Robert Fisk was refused.


It was reported on the 8th February 1868 that three boys had been apprehended after attempting to rob Mrs Fish of 6s from the till. Benjamin Bensley, William Macdonald and Edward Macdonald were the accused. Bensley admitted to taking the money and said that the Macdonald brothers kept watch outside.
Bensley was sentenced to twenty-one days hard labour and five years' relegation to a reformatory. The other two defendants received two months' hard labour each.
