The Commissioners Meeting was held here 17th October 1807.
In April 1820 it was announced that Mr John Frost had taken this well
established inn, previously in the occupation of Mr. Chilvers. This change
seems not to have happened since on 20th May 1820, it was announced that
the house was to be sold during the coming month, with Mr. Chilvers was
still in occupation.
A sales notice followed advising that the property was to
be sold by auction 10th June 1820. `Old established Inn with chaise house, stable, yard and
garden - Possession given at Michaelmas next.' It appears that Mr. Frost did
not arrive at the house until sometime after 1824.
4 November 1820 -

he has taken the above old established inn, and humbly hopes, by a strict
attention to their comfort and accommodation to merit patronage and support.
