Summary: |
The Newmarket Hotel was built in 1905 and remained in operation throughout the 20th century, the only early Cockburn hotel to survive past the 1920s. By the 1980s it had taken advantage of new licensing laws to become a tavern instead of a hotel, meaning it no longer had to provide accommodation while serving alcohol. By most accounts its rooms were in poor repair by this time and were rarely used for accommodation. |
