No details are known. It's listed as "beerhouse (no sign)" in the 1909 ratings records adjacent to number 23 (we're not sure which side). It was owned by the Colchester Brewery.
A Smith, in his paper "Inns of Beccles in 1929" (kindly supplied by Daryl Ling) tells us this was known as Dickerson's Beerhouse after its keeper. Smith also gives us the closure date.
