Details: The Commercial Inn was owned by Newcastle businessman Simon Kemp in the 1830s. Innkeepers over the years included John Rowell, Hugh McMillan, Ann McNamara, Thomas Groves, Wick Norton and Joseph Croft. The Inn was destroyed by fire in 1859. THE FIRST THEATRE in Newcastle – It was in 1854 that the first theatrical made his appearance in Newcastle in the person of a Mr. Muriel, who placed Bombastee Furioso in the old stockade at the rear of the Custom House. Messrs. C.H.Hannell, A.A.P. Tighe, and Matthews assisted in the performance, and a distinct success was scored. The building afforded little or no comfort, and Mr. Muriel waited upon and advised Mr. J. Croft who was the licensee of the Commercial Hotel, where the A.J.S. Bank later stood, to erect a theatre, which he did, the building extending from the present bank corner as far as Lashmore s in Hunter Street

This building was erected by Captain Wallis in 1818 and some 10 years later (8 March 1828) it was opened as a post office with Mr. D.F. Mackay as the postmaster. Later still, the Newcastle City Council held its meetings in this old building while the council chambers were being built in front.
