Mentioned with the address of Barming heath in 1855, under the rule of Samuel Rupell.

 

Local knowledge, further pictures, and licensee information would be appreciated.

I will be adding the historical information when I find or are sent it, but this project is a very big one, and I do not know when or where the information will come from.

All emails are answered.

Missing pensioner found at Cherry Tree Inn in Barming.

Police were called to a Barming pub after a missing pensioner was spotted there.

Two squad cars were seen outside the "Cherry Tree Inn" in Tonbridge Road yesterday following reports of concern for the welfare of a man.

Officers were called at 9.25pm and entered the pub before the man was taken to hospital for assessment.

He is believed to have gone missing earlier in the evening.
