This was described as an Anti 1868 Beerhouse, meaning that it had first
been awarded a license under the 1830 beer Act and allowed the house to
continue to remain licensed by paying their annual fee without having to
attend the licensing sessions, however, only beer was allowed to be sold.
The premises was bought by a Mr. Fuggles in 1921 and hired out to the "Marden
Working Man's Club" from 2007 known as the "Marden
Village Club"
Local knowledge, pictures, and licensee information
would be appreciated.
I will be adding the historical information when I find or are sent it,
but this project is a very big one, and I do not know when or where the
information will come from.
All emails are answered.
