James Cole is given as a beer seller in both 1836 and 1845. No other licensee is named in those years for other that the TUMBLE DOWN DICK

In a manslaughter trial held Thursday 6th April 1843, Jonathan Goose is called as a witness and named here as the licensee.
On the 5th March customers William Wright (18) and Robert Rose had scuffled and they both had fallen. Complaining of pain in his lower body Rose went home and died two days later.
Wright was found guilty of assault and sentenced to three months' imprisonment with hard labour.

William Goodram (recorded as Gooderham) was charged by police constable Watson of keeping the house open at improper hours for the sale of beer. At the Loddon Sessions held Tuesday 6th April 1852 he was found guilty and was fined £1 plus 18s costs. (George Garrard of the TUMBLE DOWN DICK also suffered the same fate.)

At the Loddon Petty Sessions Wednesday, 6th September 1876, Messrs. Bullard & Sons applied for licence renewal and confirmed that since the present landlord was seventy-eight and physically incapacitated to conduct the house, they would provide a new tenant as soon as the licence was renewed.
