Exeter Flying Post: Saturday 19th July 1890

Fire in St. Thomas: Shortly after three o’clock on Wednesday a fire was discovered in the hayloft, in the yard of the Ship Inn, Alphington Street, St. Thomas. An alarm was raised, and Mr. M. Farrant. Mr. T. Symons, and Mr. James, members of the fire brigade were quickly in attendance with the hose reel. Fortunately, the fire was discovered in its infancy, and was extinguished by willing helpers with buckets of water.  Other members of the fire brigade had arrived by this time, but their services were not required.  P.S. Egan and P.C. Newberry were also in attendance to render assistance if required. Not much damage was done; the chief thing burnt being the hay. The property belongs to Mr. Pinsent, brewer, of Newton Abbot, and is occupied by Mr. W. H. Oliver. Had the fire not been discovered when it was, no doubt there would have been a serious conflagration, as the building is chiefly of wood, which is tarred. It consisted of a brew-house, hayloft, cattle stalls, and carpenters’ shop.
