This was also referred to as "Princesse Hesse" on occasion so I point that out first. We must not quarrel. A new licence was issued in 1871 but that would not be the first. We know that drink was available in 1862. The year 1874 saw four different licensees - which in itself - is something of a record - and efforts were made the following year to transfer the licence to "Sir Garnet Wolseley". It was not allowed but the brewer had obviously seen enough. It became a private dwelling.
