I wanted to find the landlord of the Stocks public house in Padgate Lancashire on the census forms. I believe the original pub was at the end of Green Lane Padgate nr Warrington Lancashire. The newer Stocks pubs (2) were on Station road Padgate. I was told my ancestor might have been the landlord of one of them. Any help would be much appreciated. Thank you. Chris Watters

There is a Henry DAINTETH 26 lic victualler at Stocks Inn Padgate Rd (born Croft) and family in 1891.

I can't see a public house on Green Lane on old maps, only on Padgate Rd.

Thanks so much one of my ancestors was Henry Daintith so that could be him as my family came from Croft. There is a Henry DAINLETH 26 lic victualler at Stocks Inn Padgate Rd (born Croft) and family in 1891. Quite a few of the census have spelling mistakes in them so I will investigate further.
-
Also a Thomas DAINTETH (56, Padgate, publican) and family in 1881 - no name of the Public House given on the census though.

There were supposed to be two pubs one on the end of Green lane (where I lived) just near the bridge and where Monks and Trollops were, they were reported for bear baiting ! apparently. I only remember the one pub on station road opposite the church. I never knew my ancestors were publicans either as my grans family were tee total. Doing my family history has been amazing as they started off as silk weavers then porter and ale brewers then publicans.

Further to reply #3, from the tiithe map for Poulton with Fearnhead 1841.
There is a public house marked at the position of the Padgate Stocks PH that is shown on old OS maps at the south end of Padgate Road (now Station Road S)
landowner: George Hatton
occupier: James Paul
The plot adjoining immediately to the north, more or less opposite the chapel is 'Malt Kiln and Garden'
landowner: William Hatton
occupier: George Hatton

Thanks for that information Alan, every bit helps with my family history.

An older map (1845) showing Maltkiln Farm. And Padgate Stocks Inn seems to be on the other side of the road now.

#9 The position of that Padgate Stocks Inn matches up with the 1841 tithe map PH very well, on that bend.

It's amazing how all those years ago and what we can find now. Thanks so much.

Hi,
I was researching a Licensed Victualler, William IRONMONGER, a few years ago and viewed some fascinating documents from the 1820s and 1830s at Lancashire Records Office. I was looking at pubs in Newton-le-Willows and Haydock, but I'm wondering if Lancashire Records Office would hold similar documents for inns/pubs in Padgate.
I was viewing documents that related to "Licenses and recognizances: The Alehouse Act 1552." This act directed that alehouse keepers be licensed by local justices of the peace. You would be able to look for your ancestor in quarter sessions records up to 1888. These quarter sessions records are found at the relevant county record office.
I read a document that my ancestor had to sign that related to bear fighting. I mention this because of your ancestor being reported for bear baiting.
Best wishes, Rowan :)

I found the attached newspaper clipping in a Warrington paper called The Examiner. Date; 09/06/1894.
It sounds like your guy :)

Another newspaper clipping. This one from The Northwich Guardian, 05/10/1872.
It mentions Thomas DAINTETH, Padgate Stocks.
