November 1885 - George Moore also supplied Loam-peat flag, gravel, stone, sand and leaf mould - Best Quality and Reasonable Prices.

Renumbered no. 74 Barrack Street from 1900.

At the Norwich Licensing Session held Friday 24th August 1900 there was objection to licence renewal owing to the rear of the premises sharing access with adjoining cottages and the shared access often being locked, preventing police communication with the back doors. Decision to be considered at another date, at the adjourned session.


At the 1908 Sessions Police Sergeant Wentford reported that there were 9 other houses within 200 yards. The house was well conducted and mainly used by employees of the Steward & Patteson Brewery.

Licence provisionally refused 05.02.1908 and referred to Compensation,
Closed under compensation 04.01.1909.

Site was incorporated into the Steward & Patteson Brewery complex.
