Elizabeth Osborne, servant to Mr. Lane was charged, Saturday 9th September 1863, of being drunk, assaulting her mistress and of tearing her gown. Mrs. Lane did not press charges and so Osborne was discharged.

Upon the evidence of Mr. Albert D. Lane, Robert Breeze was charged, 9th December 1864, of setting fire to hay and straw in the hay-loft at the Oriental Public-house, St. Stephen's.
With no supporting evidence, the prisoner was discharged.

Named in 1865 directory.

On Friday 12th October 1866, riveter George Ezekiel Butcher, of Cherry Lane, was charged with stealing a gallon of rum, half a gallon of brandy, a number of tumbler glasses and two half pint pewter mugs from the long time, unoccupied house. The items were valued at a total of £2 10s.
Unfortunately for the prosecutors, Messrs. Steward & Patteson, the items could not be positively identified and the prisoner was told to go about his business, but reminded that if he was addicted to stealing, sooner or later he would be brought to justice.
