Address as 9 Barrack Street in 1900, 1908 & 1935.
Found at Cowgate Street in 1854 and at
30 Church Street at other times.
New licence granted 10th September 1845
~
Being within the Norwich Corporation clearance area, the renewal of licence
was opposed at the Sessions held Tuesday 10th March 1937.
The Chief Constable reported that there were 17 fully licensed houses within
the Magdalen Street and Barrack street area, within 200 yards of the
PLASTERERS ARMS...
which in turn was `within a short distance of the
BEEHIVE.' The accommodation was not satisfactory and
in his opinion, the house was not required to meet the needs of the
neighbourhood.
Messrs. Lacons had planned in July 1934 to reconstruct the premises and
their enquiries had determined in October 1935, that there were no road
widening schemes that would effect the site. They had been informed by the
Corporation on 6th February 1936 that it would be unwise to continue with
their redevelopment scheme. In 1925 the Chief Constable had objected to
licence renewal and as a consequence, Messrs. Lacons had spent between £350
and £400 on alterations and improvement.
Messrs. Lacons reported that since the Compensation Act, more licenses
in Norwich had been taken away from them than any other brewer.
The licensee Sydney Burden said that in spite of the slum clearances, trade
had increased within the last twelve months. The house had given him a good
living for the past eight years.
Licence provisionally refused and referred to Compensation.
~
Licence removed to the WATERLOO STORES, St
Clement 16.11.1937. (Later to be the IRON DUKE)
Closed c1937 and demolished by 1939.
