Thursday 13th August 1959 - Fine of £4 for supplying intoxicating liquor after permitted hours.
The two customers involved were farmers. Pleading guilty of consuming after hours, each were fined £2.





On Tuesday 15th December 1891 - James Dunning sought to recover £14 12s 3d from the former licensee, Robert Stearn, for use of the stables, shed and premises. Upon taking over the house at Michaelmas 1889, Dunning had allowed Stearn to use the facilities, but nothing had been said about payment for such. Dunning admitted that he had used the horses and had some seed wheat from Stearn.
Judgment was that nothing was owing.
