Sarah Thrower was given notice to quit by the executors of the
will of the late Richard Bullard. She had to quit the house on
25th August 1868 and would be liable to costs if she did not sign the
necessary documents for the transfer of licence.
On Tuesday 24th August 1869, Mr. Carlos Cooper made an application on
behalf of Mrs Sarah Thrower for a spirit licence for the
STATION HOTEL. The request
was refused in consequence of the informality of the notice. The
application for renewal of the beer licence was adjourned.

Station Refreshment Rooms are given under separate entries.)
On Wednesday 26th August 1874 William Filbee, landlord of the
