In 1863 Charles Edwards is named at the CROSS KEYS, Mattishall and as a beer retailer at Mattishall Burgh.

Sold at auction 27th January 1777 along with 6 acres of land.
Sale took place at the George Inn, Mattishall.

At the Petty Sessions held Friday 28th August 1863 all innkeepers' licenses were renewed except for that of Charles Edwards.
Having partaken rather too freely of the good things that he sold, he rather noisily requested that his licence be signed at once, waving it about in oratorical style. When reproved by the chairman for being intoxicated, he energetically declared that he was as sober as any of the magistrates present; but the bench, being of different opinion, suspended the granting of his licence until their next sitting and fined him 5s and 6s expenses. He was given into the care of Superintendent Amis until he had overcome the fumes of the liquor he had swallowed.


Address as Folly Lane 1868, 1869 & 1882.


Licence transferred to the WHIFFLER, Hellesdon, following closure September 1939.
