Maidstone Telegraph 29 September 1866.

PETTY SESSIONS. APPLICATIONS JOB SPIRIT LICENCES.

There were no less than six applications from beer sellers for spirit licenses.

......

Mr J. Monckton applied for a licence on behalf of Mr W. Young, for the "Artillery Arms." Thornhills. He Thought the house was situated in an increasing neighbourhood, that it had been built for a public house, and no opposition offered to the applicant. It was but just that his claims should be taken into their consideration.

......

The magistrates then retired to consult in private upon the implications, and upon their return the Mayor said that they had decided upon granting the license to the "Greyhound," Scrubs-lane, only.
