Application by Thomas Jarmany for a spirit licence, refused at the
licensing sessions 5th September 1863.
Thomas Jarmy applied for a spirit licence for his beerhouse, 1st September
1866.
One of the magistrates, Mr. John Longe objected and designated all public
houses as more or less nuisances and there was no need for an extension of
them in the area. The majority of magistrates did not hold that view and the
licence was granted.
Note : Mr. Longe lived at nearby Spixworth - much later to be the home of
the LONGE ARMS PH.
House transferred from Sprowston Parish
to Norwich in 1907.
Address previously no. 470 Sprowston Road (1912, 1925)
Licence transferred to new premises which opened
