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.

 

Steve Morskyj whose parents were licensees says the following:- Soon after moving in Courage paid for a major refurbishment knocking the lounge bar, the off licence section and the ‘private bar’ through into one bar as I believe it is today, public bar was out the back of the pub, entrance down the side next to what was a fish and chip shop next door. My parents stayed there and thoroughly enjoyed this establishment until Dad had to retire around 1975. Very busy pub in its time and very reliable regulars. They retired to West Mersea in Essex.

Kent Police have appealed for information after a man was attacked at The Huntsman pub in Rochester.

Detectives have appealed for information after a man was glassed in the face and repeatedly kicked in a "sustained" pub attack.

Officers investigating the assault at the "Huntsman" in Pattens Lane, Rochester, which left the victim with a serious facial injury, have released a CCTV image of a man they want to speak to.
