PORK MARKET TAVERN #
12 Ratcliffe Street / 12 Corporation Street
*
Was later renamed the
"PUBLIC HALL HOTEL"
*
*
*
 |
| This is the southwest (left) and south-east (right) elevations of the Public Hall Hotel. I reckon that puts the entrance on Corporation Street. |
*
*
In about 1888 the Pork Market Tavern was bought by the Corporation
from the Blackburn Sewering Company, and sold by them to George Whittle.

LICENCE OBJECTION
ISABELLA HARRISON, of the Pork Market
beerhouse, Ratcliffe Street, does not live on the
premises. She is residing in Adelphi Street, and
Thomas Earnshaw, who lost his licence in 1869
is managing the house.
At a later meeting (see below) it was stated that the licence
was in Harrison's name, but the house was in the
occupation of Mr. Earnshaw and his wife. Harrison
denied this, and said she lived there, and employed
Earnshaw and his wife to assist her.
The objection was over-ruled.
