It was reported 11th July 1863 that on Wednesday 8th July, Elizabeth Rofe had charged her husband, Edward of  violently assaulting her on the night of the 4th July. Having "lately come into a little property", Mr.  Rofe admitted he was not sober at the time, but denied hitting his wife. The Mayor said the most merciful thing they could do would be to send him to prison for a month, which would afford him time for reflection.

Named the TUNS in 1819 and in the 1891 census.

Application was made at the Brewster Sessions 24.08.1901 for removal of licence to new premises to be built 35 yards along the road. Building costs for the new house were given as £1400. The Licensing Committee recommended the application, but the Bench voted 7 for and 7 against, so confirmation was refused.

On Friday 6th March 1903 opposition to the removal to new premises was dropped. Fresh plans showed that only a private door would be opposite the Congregational Chapel and the new Three Tuns would be some feet further away from the Chapel. Messrs. Lacon would also surrender the full licence of the Lord Collingwood.

At the Licensing Session Tuesday 2nd February 1904 it was heard that the new premises had been completed and it was confirmed that the provisional order of removal would be dated 1st March 1904.

The licence of the LORD COLLINGWOOD was given up, c1905, in consideration for a (full ?) licence for this house.

Closed 1942 - it is assumed for the duration of the war.
No mention yet found if closure was due to damage by enemy action.
