Historic Interest
A report in the Ipswich Journal** in Oct 1840 states that : An announcement of the death on the 28th, Mrs F Philpot, Woodbridge, formerly of the Anchor Inn, aged 58 years. The 1904 Woodbridge licensing records show that the (then) Station Hotel's license was issued in 1843. Whether this was when it was first licensed or when it got a full (ie not just beer) license isn't clear, though the latter seems more probable. The Station Hotel name evidently came about some time between 1910 & about 1930, as in the Woodbridge Rate book produced in 1910 the name Anchor Inn is crossed out & replaced with Station Hotel. A report in the Bury & Norwich Post** on Dec-28 in 1838 states that the pub was sold to John Cobbold as part of the Samuel Alexander's Brewery sale, the Anchor selling at £1420. A report in the Ipswich Journal*** on 02 Apr in 1853 states that : To be let, with immediate possession, The Anchor Inn, Woodbridge, apply to Mr CANA, Woodbridge for rent etc. Mr Wm. KEEBLE is relinquishing the Inn.
