Built in 1871, little is known of this so called beerhouse
Mrs Margaret Kirk – beer Retailer in 1883-1890 and Will Moore by late 1890s. By 1920, Sarah Jane Short was listed as shopkeeper.
More than likely an offie with a name, like others in Gresham St either in anticipation of gaining a full licence or to promote its profile.
Building compulsory purchased for demolition in 1968.
