Sheerness Guardian, 22 September, 1860.
SITTINGBOURNE PETTY SESSIONS.
Monday, before E. Twopenny, (chairman), J. D. Dyke, Sir T. M. Tylden
and the Rev. G. B. Moore.
General Licensing Day.
The following applications for new licenses were heard:—
Mr. Hills applied for a licence to a house belonging to Mr. W. J.
Attwater, at West Minster, nearly one mile and a half from
Sheerness. He remarked that this was a new locality, upon which was
erected the Works of the Sheppey Gas Consumers' Company, and that the
requirements of the neighbourhood demanded such a place, as 15
houses were already erected and there were 40 more in course of
erection and it was probable that during the next 12 months from 140
to 150 more would be erected in the locality. Refused.
