1872, Anthony Henigon, Foundry Tavern, George street
Yorkshire Post and Leeds Intelligencer. 26 August 1871
The annual brewster sessions of the report by the chief constable, it appeared that nine licensed victuallers and five beersellers had been convicted against the tenour of their licenses, the number being 19 at the same period last year.
There are in the city 206 licensed alehouses, 60 beerhouses, and 10 houses licensed to sell wine, making a total of 276.
Complaints against particular public houses, namely the Magpie and Stump, Penleys Grove street, lately occupied by Jane Crowther, but since she left the house, in April last, there had been no complaints; the Flying Horse, in Coppergate; the Bay Horse, Walmgate; the Foundry Tavern, George street; a beerhouse in Kings Square; and the Harp of Erin, Water lane.
The magistrates withdrew the license from the Flying Horse, the Foundry Tavern and the Harp of Erin, and with regard to the Bay Horse, in Walmgate, the bench intimated that the license would be renewed provided the landlord obtained a suitable tenant in place of him who would leave the house three weeks hence. All other licenses were renewed.
