previously known as
and possibly, in the early 1700's
the "SETTING DOG"
*
More recently as "THE TITHEBARN"
the original Tithebarn Tavern has been dealt with elsewhere.

| The neighbouring building that was demolished, has left this exposed brickwork. See the enlargement of a portion of it, below. |
 |
| I don't know how much of this is 'original' but the bricks were probably layed in the early 1700's. There will have been some re-pointing work done, but I'd be pleased to hear the views of an expert. This enlargement is taken from the bottom left hand corner of the previous picture. |

A RIVAL HECATE
BELLA MYERSCOUGH, of the Waggon and Horses
public house, Lord Street, was charged with a grievous
ourage upon the person of a man named William Cuerden,
a carter, living in High Street.
The complainant, whose face was frightfully disfigured,
said that on the Tuesday week preceding, he had gone to
the house of the defendant, who, in consequence of a few
words between them, had taken a shovel full of burning
cinders, and thrown them at his head, by which his face
was dreadfully burned.
The defendant did not deny the charge, but said she had
received gross provocation from Cuerden, he having
taken improper liberties with her.
Under the circumstances, the Magistrates adjudged
Mrs. Myerscough to pay 12 shillings, the doctor's bill,
and the costs.

MEASLED PORK
James Fazackerley appeared to answer a charge
preferred against him by Mr. Marriott, Sanitory
Inspector, of having in his possession, and in the
process of being dressed for sale, the carcase of
a measled pig. Marriott said that tat morning he
found a butcher in the act of dressing a pig at the
Waggon and Horses public-house in Tithebarn
Street, and suspecting that it was not fit for human
food, from a certain appearance about the"sticking
part," he waited till it was opened, when he saw
that the animal was diseased. He did not think that
the defendant knew ir was measled when he bought
it, as it was difficult to detect that disease in a
living animal.
The Bench ordered the carcase to be destroyed.
