The Union Inn, The Oddfellows Arms
The Union Inn in Union Street was renamed the Oddfellows Arms sometime after 1840. The Oddfellows Arms took it's name from the Oddfellows Hall built in 1839, for meetings and could hold up to 400 people. It was the old court house prior to the court house being built in George Street in the late 1890's. The Literary and Philosophical Society held their meetings there.
