The Beerhouse Act 1840 (3 & 4 Vict c 61) was an Act of the Parliament of the United Kingdom. It was one of the Licensing Acts 1828 to 1886.[2] It was the third Beerhouse Act.[3][4] It was passed to amend the Beerhouse Act 1830 (1 Will 4 c 64) and the Beerhouse Act 1834 (4 & 5 Will 4 c 85).[5] The change in the law made it necessary for persons to have continued residence within the building that they were intending to use after an application for the issuing of a licence for the selling of alcohol, and that they be in possession of the deeds of ownership of the building.[6][7]

The Act became necessary to control the development of civil disorder (national evil)[8] caused by those involved in activities resulting from the vice of intoxication,[8] specifically of the people within the class of labouring workers[8] in ale houses so that in 1834 a select committee was created to investigate in order that measures of legislature might be created to limit this.[9]
