Between the years 1826 and
1828,
Joseph Singleton
held the license for the Plough Inn,
formerly the Barlow Mow run by his brother Benjamin Singleton.
The name was later changed to the
Plough & Horses.
In July 1831, the following
advertisement appeared in the Sydney Gazette -
'Mr.
John Johnston having opened the House at Patrick's Plains
formerly occupied by
Richard Yeoman, respectfully begs the support and encouragement of his
Friends and the Public in that district, and trusts that, by a more
liberal attention to the comforts of those who may favour him with their
company, he will be enabled to revive the character
originally held by the Barley Mow, but now offered for
their accommodation under the auspices of the Good Woman.
Darlington 17th July 1831.'
(Richard Yeomans took over the
Woolpack Inn
in West Maitland
after this date. He died in May 1833 and was buried in the Glebe
cemetery)
