Robert Yaxley applied to make alterations to the bar, Tuesday 19th April 1904. The aim was to create a `Bottle & Jug' department since it was sometimes inadvisable for young girls to come into the bar to fetch beer for dinner. The works would involve making a new doorway and erecting a partition, so reducing the actual drinking area.
The magistrates approved the application.

Closed for the duration of WWII according to a letter dated 23.04.1941.
Reopened 03.11.1945.

Closed by 1957.

Licence surrendered upon grant of new licence to the
