From The Era 9 September 1849.
Rising Sun, St. Mary's Cray.
Mary Ann Roberts, by Mr. Gratton, her
solicitor, asked for a license to this house. Last year a similar
application was made, when there was also one in respect of the "Red Lion,"
standing within 100 yards of the "Rising Sun," and the result was, that the
"Red Lion" was licensed. It was now stated that the population of St. Mary's
Cray had increased since last September, and that there were fewer inns in
the parish than in others in the same division.
License refused.

South Eastern Gazette, 12 March, 1860.
ORPINGTON. Death by Burning.
On Tuesday last an inquest was held at the "Rising Sun," before C.
J. Carttar, Esq., coroner, on James William Kemp, a little child
about two years and a half old, the son of a labourer employed on
the railway works. It appeared that the mother went out for a short
time on the previous Friday morning, leaving the deceased and a
younger child playing in the room. On her return she found the room
full of smoke, and the poor child’s clothes on fire. His cries
brought assistance and the flames were extinguished, but, although
Mr. Smith, surgeon, rendered every assistance, the poor child died
early on the following morning.
Verdict, "Accidental death."
