Historic Interest

Mary Baldry, who was running the Volunteer up to 1882, set up her own unnamed beerhouse late that year. She ran the beerhouse until 1892, when the license was transferred to Harry Baldry. In 1905 or 06, the license was transferred from Harry to John Cornforth(?) & for the first time it was named in the licensing record as the Engineer's Arms. Got a full license on February 6th 1956 (transferred from the Southwold Marquis of Lorne.
