In 1858 Henry Hackney is given at the
QUEEN VICTORIA,
Tower Street.
In the 1863 directory he is named at the
NORFOLK ARMS, but in December 1863 he was found guilty of
having his house open during prohibited hours. He was then said to be at the
HEART OF OAK, beerhouse and owing to the fact that he had
been fined a total of £19 4s in fines and costs for previous similar
offences, he was further fined £2 and 16s 6d costs.
Before the magistrates on Monday, 15th May 1871, it was stated that
"when Mr. Parker took on the house, he brought a prostitute to live in
with him who used to keep a brothel in Surrey Street, notwithstanding he
had a wife living, and in fact the house was now a perfect brothel."
It was heard that Frances Jason, hawker of Weasenham, a married woman,
had met Robert Raffell, of London, on Wednesday 4th December, at the
Black Dog. They then went to the Norfolk Arms where Raffell paid 6d to
the landlady for a room. The pair went to bed, but after a short time,
Jason suddenly left the room. Raffell went downstairs to order a ginger
beer and that is where he discovered 30 shillings were missing.
Previously he had paid Jason 2s, and at that time, the 30s was still in
his possession. On Monday 9th December 1872, Jason was sentenced to 14
days' imprisonment at Wymondham gaol, without hard labour for theft.
