Location given as `Next to Bath House' when new (full) licence issued 31st August 1852.

It was heard Tuesday 4th March 1856, that landlord Farman had assaulted Robert Thorne following an argument about £4 of unpaid rent due 15th February. Thorne, a clerk for brewer Mr. Seaman, had refused to show authorisation for entering the house since upon arrival he had served notice for the unpaid rent of £4 and considered that sufficient. Farman attempted to eject him from the house and failing to do so, set a large bulldog at him. The dog seized him by the leg and was knocked off, but it flew at him again. It was Farman who pulled the dog off by choking it.
Farman claimed that he had believed his wife had already paid the rent and was greatly irritated by the demand.
The Recorder said that Farman's conduct was as cowardly as it was ferocious and being found guilty, a sentence of 4 month's imprisonment, without hard labour, was awarded.
