1984 - Lacons fireplace surround.

In court on Friday 27th July 1849 a claim for damages for Non-repair was heard. The action was to recover damages for dilapidation to the Swan public house. The plaintiff was Neale and the defendants were brewers from the neighbourhood of Wisbech, named Ratcliffe and Another. The defendants had hired the house from Neale under an agreement dated 10th May 1845 at a rent of £41, payable half yearly, with six months notice to put an end to the tenancy by either party. Upon giving up the premises the defendants were to leave the house in good and tenantable repair. They left at Michaelmas 1847.
The Plaintiff claimed that before the defendants had taken possession the property had been put into proper repair, but it was argued that upwards of £200 would have been required to put in substantial repair and to achieve a tenantable state, £60 would be required. As it was tradesmen's bills fell very short of that sum.
After a hearing taking five hours, the Jury found substantially for the Plaintiff with damages of £20, but other issues were found for the defendants.
