Licence referred at Watton licensing session held 2nd February 1910.

At the Adjourned Licensing Sessions, Wednesday 2nd March 1910 it was said that Caston then had one licensed house for every 84 inhabitants. The house stood back from the road and had a one-horse stable, but that was used for pigs. The coach-house was being used as a carpenter's shop. The sanitary arrangements were very defective and there was no water supply to the house.
