Believed to have stopped being a beer house around WW1. Afterwards the
premises became a garage business and the above picture in 2009 still shows
a petrol station on the left, and still in the Oliver family.
The building is now called "Hillcrest."
As the information is found or sent to me, including photographs, it will
be shown here.
Thanks for your co-operation.

At the annual licensing sessions for the Ashford petty
sessional division held on Tuesday Superintendent Jones submitted his
report which showed that there had been a decrease of two ale-houses mid
two sweet licences. Twenty-five persons had been proceeded against on
charges of drunkenness, a decrease of nine persons (eight residents, and
one non-resident), as compared with the last twelve months. The Chairman
(Captain Down) said all the licences would be renewed with the exception
of the "Royal Oak," Ashford, the "OId English Gentleman," Ashford, and
