The details I have relate to the Brick House in the Parish of East Dean. I am assuming that the Brick House was in Plump Hill as there is a private residence called Brick House on Plump Hill. It is the red house on the left of the A4136 road travelling up the hill from Mitcheldean.
Emma Barnard was the owner and occupier of the Brick House in 1891. The licence was for off-sales only, so the Brick House was effectively a ‘jug and bottle’ off-licence. It must have been quite basic as the beer house only had an annual rateable value of £8.0s.0d.
There is no mention of the Brick House in the 1903 Gloucestershire licensing book.
