Address as St. Nicholas Street in 1822 & 1830.

Edward Beaney was charged Monday 3rd September 1900 of, on the 14th August, keeping his house open at 11:12pm for the sale of liquor.
Police-constable Rhodes said that he had found a bar at the rear filled with people, some of whom were fighting. Some men were drinking, but he did not see any beer drawn. Witness John Barrett said that some money had been dropped and the people would not leave until it had all been found.
In defence it was said that the house was not open for the sale of liquor and that Beaney had been at the house for 25 years and had always borne a good character. Case Dismissed.

Music licence renewed Monday 29th February 1904.

At the Licensing Sessions of Monday 7th March 1910, licensee James Crome applied for a Music Licence. The previous tenant had such a licence but it was not transferrable. Chief Constable Payne had no objection to the licence but felt obliged to inform that objection to the previous licence had been raised by the people living in the house opposite because of continuous playing of a gramophone. The Chairman agreed that gramophones were noisy but not very musical.
Mr Crome said that he wished to install a piano. Young fellows sometimes came and started singing. He could keep better order if his customers were listening to a piano rather than if they just sat, drunk and argued.
The Magistrates agreed to renewal of the Music Licence on the understanding that the gramophone was done away with. The Chairman stressing that `we do not want any misunderstanding' regarding removal of the instrument.

It was confirmed at the Brewster sessions Monday 12th February 1912 that the house held a music licence. This was renewed at the Sessions held 11th March 1912.

Damaged by enemy action 13.03.1941 & 10.11.1941.

Market Day extension granted 1959.

Closed 14.03.1961 and licence surrendered, according to S&P records.
Licence Register gives surrender of licence as February 1961.
