Correspondence between the Corporation and the owners of
the George III public house in St. Michael`s Street is reported upon by the
Housing and Town Planning Committee. The Borough Engineer informed the
Committee he had suggested that the Corporation and the brewers might agree to
an exchange of a small piece of land to permit satisfactory development of land
owned by the Corporation north of Bennett`s Yard. The owners in reply had enquired if the
Corporation would be interested in purchasing the licensed premises, the George
III.
The Committee resolved that it did not wish to
purchase the licensed premises but that a further approach should be made to
the owners of the George III public house, suggesting the exchange of the
small portion of land on the lines originally proposed by the Borough Engineer.
