This company still held the licence on closure although when it came up for renewal in 1964 no application was made so the license lapsed. Throughout its life there seems to be only ~~one report~~ of problems with the law ~~when~~ in 1864 the then licensee Peter Burrows was committed for trial for receiving a side of pork, stolen from the slaughterhouse of James Fuller, who we believe was trading on Magdalen Road at the time.
