Blackfriars Street was North Clough Lane before 1845. Address given as Blackfriars Road 1845 -1861 and as 39 Blackfriars Street from 1871. Monday March 22nd 1858 - Elizabeth Barber, brothel-keeper and Sarah Ann Magrath, a married woman and one of the former's `family' were accused of stealing a £5 note from Joseph Eastwood, master of the `Helen' of Goole. He had slept at the house kept by `Mother Barber' at 16 Regent Street and found the money gone in the morning. At midnight a woman resembling Barber had purchased some brandy from the Clough Fleet Tavern and offered a £5 note, which landlady Mrs. Pilch produced and Eastwood was able to identify. The prisoners were committed to trial. The Lynn Licensed Victuallers Association met here on 18th April 1945. During the meeting it was stated that should VE-Day be soon declared, there was very little likelihood of an increased supply of beer and other drinks. There was already a shortage of beer.
