Union Place 1847

On Monday 12th April 1847 it was heard that Artillery Sergeant Brown had, on the previous Saturday, been billeted in the house. Being unhappy with his sleeping arrangements an argument had erupted and Mrs. Catchpole received a black eye and lost a tooth. Given a favourable reference by his commanding officer, and by the sergeant admitting that he had "acted rather rashly", a fine of 5s was paid.

Address as Crooks Place 1845 & 1897.

67 Queen Street in 1890.
Queen street was renamed Nicholas street in 1895.

  On Friday 7th February 1908, Youngs, Crawshay & Youngs sought to retrieve the sum of £14 11s for the licence, rent and balance of goods supplied to the late landlord, George Simpson.
Simpson alleged there was an agreement whereby he paid 2s extra per barrel in order to pay the £11 5s 3d which the brewers had paid for the licence.
Hearing that the agreement had been mistakenly omitted from the brewer's ledger, the jury instructed that only £3 5s and 3d was to be paid for the outstanding rent, and goods sold and delivered.
