In January 1960 the tenant, who had taken on the house in 1958, complained of the high rate assessment for the property. The figure had been accepted by the first tenant, but then trade was unknown. A further £5 had been added in September 1959 following addition of a Garage.
Sales for the year ending 30th September 1958 were :-
65 barrels of beer, 62 barrels of bottled beer and 35 spirits.
The sales in 1959 were ;-
86 barrels of beer, 84 bottled and 36 spirits.
The tenant was finding it difficult to attract local trade and the assessment of £255 was considered to be very high indeed and the matter was asked to be reconsidered.
Morgans Brewery proposed an assessment of £200 in a letter dated 16th February 1960.

Morgans sales in 1960 were :-
170 barrels of beer and
14 spirits.

Reopened Saturday 18th November 1995 following refurbishment by new owner, builder John Mann.
