Overview
The Live and Let Live was a beerhouse in Newtown, Paulton. It seems to have opened when Tom Lovell began selling beer here in the late 1860s. The earliest record of the name I can find is when the license was transferred to Thomas Hall (Tom Lovell's Brother-in-law) in 1879. It closed in 1920, when the license was revoked, though Thomas Hall continued living in the property until his death in 1943.
