William Thrower applied for a spirit licence at the Petty Sessions held
Wednesday 26th August 1868. The previous landlord had been convicted of
a felony some five months before and the spirit licence had been taken
away as a consequence. Since Mr. Throwers occupation, the house had been
used as a beer-house only. It was argued that since it was less than
three years since a full licence was held, the usual notices were not
necessary. The Bench initially refused the application. The owner of the house, Mr.
Etheridge of Eye, considered the decision to be very hard on him as
landlord of the house.
Fortunately a previous landlord, Robert Aldous was in the room and since
he had run the house for thirteen years and had known William Thrower
for his entire life, he considered the applicant to possess all of the
qualifications for keeping a public house. The licence consequently was granted.
Closed.
Demolished 1969.
