Location 1836 given as near lime kiln.

It was reported 9th July 1856 that the evils of the usual harvest home activities had been `considerably mitigated in Mr. Hammond's parish since he had taken the most radical means to put them down - viz., by closing down the only public house in Westacre.'

Full licence granted after 1962, before 1966.
