Apparently the COMMERCIAL BOARDING HOUSE 1859 & 1863. Henry Crickmore applied for a full licence on Monday 23rd August 1858 - Refused. Recorded as the EXCHANGE Temperance Hotel 1864. Charles Hammond applied for a New Licence Tuesday 23rd September 1870. The house, owned by Lacey and Hammond was described as a cigar divan and reading-room. It was intended to open the house as a place of refreshment where chops, steaks, &c., could be supplied, especially on Saturdays. It would be a great boon to the diners to provide them with a draught, rather than send them elsewhere. The house would not open on Sundays and would close every week-day at ten o'clock at night. One hundred merchants from the Corn Hall supported the application as did local residents. Only Mr. Morley, of the CORN EXCHANGE VAULTS**, opposed the application. Granted. Listed as the EXCHANGE HOTEL 1865 & 1875. Found under COMMERCIAL BOARDING HOUSE and EXCHANGE TAVERN 1868 Norwich Wine Company stores to 07.04.1879 Appears in directories from 1879 as the QUEENS HOTEL Licence refused 1889
** The Norfolk News of 27th August 1870 reported Mr. Morley was at the POST OFFICE STORES, but the licence registers confirm he was at the CORN EXCHANGE VAULTS in 1870. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
