Address also as Calvert Street and as at St. Georges.

The `Dirty Shirt Club' met here during the 1800's.
It seems that this was a `Gossip Club' whose members smoked through churchwarden pipes, but this was not perhaps unusual at the time.

As used by John Crome according to a brochure produced by Youngs, Crawshay & Youngs in celebration of the 1937 Coronation.

Damaged by enemy action 27/29.03.1942 and again 05.09.1942.

Bullards advised the magistrates by letter dated 26.06.1963 that the premises had been closed (17.06.1963).
The licence was dropped June 1963.

House No. 436 on 1845 Magistrates list.
