The licensee, together with those who stood surety for them, appeared before the licensing justices each year, where they would pay a sum of money (or &#8216;bond&#8217;) as a guarantee of their good behaviour. Any breach of the conditions would mean the forfeiture of the money and their licence.<br><br>Unfortunately, the name of the individual public houses were not included in many of the earlier recognizances, and we are left with only a list of names, although with the aid of other sources it is possible in most cases to match the licensee with his tavern.<br><br>The history of the Alehouse Recognizance is a long one. They were first instituted under legislation passed under Henry VII, in 1495, whereby any two justices of the peace were empowered &#8216;to reject and put away common ale selling in towns and places where they should think convenient, and to take sureties of keepers of ale-houses in their good behaving&#8217;.<br><br>The end of the Recognizance came with the Ale House Act of 1828, which consolidated all the existing statutes relating to licensed premises and repealed those which were no longer required. Under the Act the justices were only given control over full publican&#8217;s licenses which carried the right to sell any type of intoxicating liquor. In return for the grant of an annual licence the publican was no longer required to lodge a bond as guarantee of good behaviour.<br><br><em>(The above account is taken from the&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.carnarvontraders.com\/recog.html###\">Carnarvon Traders<\/a><\/em><em>&nbsp;website)<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br><strong><br>The village of GATEACRE\u00a0<\/strong>was, historically, split between the Townships of Little Woolton and Much Woolton.
