The Victoria provided sleeping accommodation for people and meals during a three week period in February It was also stated that Salisbury had a population of 21, inhabitants served by 71 fully licensed houses, 4 on-Beer Houses, 3 off-Beer Houses and 2 refreshment Houses besides 15 other shops and chemists licensed to retail alcohol for consumption off the premises.
The Victoria was lucky in that the committee did not believe there were sufficient grounds to close the pub and it is still open to this day. What is more, apart from the evidence of the Renewal Authority, the Salisbury and District Temperance Society also provided evidence against the licence renewal. The Black Horse had been one of the principal coaching inns in the 19 th century but was now very run down so much that it no longer had any stabling or parking areas. The evidence to the Compensation Authority now included a report from the Sanitary Inspector for Salisbury and surveillance by the police for a week to determine how many people used the pub.
The Goat averaged 86 customers a day although this figure was dominated by about customers on each of the two market days. But it had also sold Barrels of beer, dozen of bottled beers plus wines and spirits in ; a not inconsiderable quantity that many modern pubs would be pleased to sell. Meanwhile the Ox only managed 11 customers a day, with only one customer on a Wednesday while the Waggon and Horses managed But the Ox was described as being small, badly lighted and ventilated with the sanitary arrangements being insufficient and offensive!
The Waggon and Horses got off slightly better being merely badly ventilated and lighted with the sanitary conveniences being very imperfect. In , it was the turn of the Lamb in Fisherton Street. This had 18 other licensed premises within a quarter of a mile and the sanitary arrangements were said to not be, on the whole, not unfavourable but the house was said to be small, inconvenient, and poorly lighted and ventilated.
The Public Bar was small but clean, the Private Bar very small with only one small window 6 feet from the ground while the Smoking Room could only be reached though the Jug and Bottle and was rarely used. When one hears that the stables at the rear were not used but that one of them had been converted into a licensed slaughterhouse for pigs, one could see the writing on the wall.
The yard and the urinal were not lighted at night with the result that the yard and its entrance were used as a public urinal. In , the Round of Beef in Milford Street came under scrutiny. It was said that the only large room was the smoking room, and supervision of this and the remainder of the public portions of the premises was difficult.
More damning was the fact that with only five bedrooms, no rooms were let and no meals was served to customers. The sanitary arrangements, for men only, were described as primitive in character. The Round of Beef seems to have been the last pub to be closed in Salisbury under these arrangements. Start new search Print Discovery help Bookmark. Let us know Which field contains the error?
