      > The Marrowbone & Cleaver, Queen Street, reopened as a lodging-house by 1850, when it was the scene of a 3 hour-long mass drunken brawl involving kettles and knives, followed by a police siege of the house, all of which was blamed partly on rum and a fiddler...

      Another notorious Louth pub was the Dog & Duck, opposite the chancel of the church on Upgate. In Jan 1846, Sergeant Chapman and PC Ryall forced entry after they saw lights on after closing, against the objections of the landlord, Joseph Johnson… (pic=Wm Brown, 1856) >pic.twitter.com/7hHfmVBdCJ

      > Johnson grabbed PC Ryall around the neck to prevent him going upstairs, calling out "here's the police!" Forcing their way up, the police encountered c.20 men & prostitutes dancing, and the defendant's wife pulling others into a bedroom which she locked behind her. Fined £2.

      A few more details on these pubs here, fwiw—'Hells of intemperance': three of the worst pubs in Victorian Louth, http://www.caitlingreen.org/2014/09/hells-of-intemperance-three-of-worst.html …

      Hah! Thanks :) A quote from the local reporter, William Brown, a Methodist teetotaller and preacher who was so enraged by the morals of Louth that he wrote up an incredibly detailed account of the misdeeds of the populace each week!

      Must provide some good source material.

      I stumbled on it entirely by accident. Most local histories up to recently presented Louth as quaint, quiet, no crime etc, & this material had barely ever been used, so I decided to use it and wrote Streets as a quick project :)

      (I think historians really ought to engage in local history too, from time to time: it's very widely read yet can end up simply regurgitating the same old myths. Plus it was fun to write!)

          (Of course, we need to be careful of accepting William Brown's portrait of the town too -- he saw immorality everywhere, and seems to have had a particular dislike of Jews, Irish people, and women (so little empathy on display in his reporting...))

          Indeed but it does give some alternative material to work with although filtered through a prism. I remember being told about the importance of Inquisition documents (when published by the Vatican archives) for giving very detailed accounts of people's day to day lives.
