George Musk applied for a spirit licence at the Petty Sessions held
Wednesday 28th August 1867. The application was refused. Beerhouse licence
renewed.
Frederick Dent was convicted Wednesday 24th October 1900 of having been
drunk in charge of a horse on the 5th October 1900. Mr. Dent said that
he had come into town to hear the result of the election and admitted to
having a glass or two of beer. He considered he was quite capable of
returning home and looking after his cows.
Fined 7/6d with 1s costs, Mr. Dent was reminded that his actions were
serious because he was a beerhouse keeper and although the action would
not result in his licence being endorsed, if he were addicted to such
conduct, then the licensing Justices may refuse him a licence in the
future.
Structural alterations and improvements were approved by the
magistrates, 12th January 1950.
