It was advertised in August 1850 that the Railway Hotel and Liquor-Shop on North Quay was to be let with immediate possession. `Now doing considerable trade in Beer, Spirits and Wine replete with every accommodation for customers. Apply to Mr. Lubbock on the premises or to Messrs. Steward, Patteson, Finch & Co, North Quay, Gt. Yarmouth'.

To Let with Immediate Possession June 1853.
Situated on the North Quay and commanding a very excessive Trade in Beer, Wine and Spirits.
Further particulars a the Brewery of Messrs. Steward, Patteson, Finch & Co, North Quay, Gt. Yarmouth'.


** The existence of RAILWAY TAVERNS at both 33 and 45 North Quay could mean that, in the 1860's, the licensees for these houses are transposed, since no street number has been found.

See also the RAILWAY TAVERN given in 1854 & 1856 at Fullers Hill.

John Bales is given at the QUAY MILL TAVERN in 1836,
as is William Lubbock in 1846 and Thomas Parmenter in 1890.

In a report dated 11th March 1857, Mr. John Barney Beales, landlord of the Railway Tavern, had been, for many years, the Sergeant-at-mace, but had been ejected from that office by the Tory party upon their coming to power. He had now been appointed by the Recorder to be an inspector of weights and measures.

It was reported that on Monday 11th February 1867 Albert Blackwood, landlord of the Railway Inn, North Quay, was fined 20s and costs for having assaulted a Mr. C. Arbon. He had the alternative punishment of one month in prison, should he desire.
