Above photo, circa 1921. Kindly sent by Rory Kehoe. Interesting photo of
the George, taken in the last year or so of it being a tied house,
within the estate of W. E. & J Rigden's Faversham Brewery. In 1922,
Rigden's merged with George Beer's Star Brewery, Canterbury, to form
George Beer & Rigden, with all brewing transferred to Faversham. Looking
at the wall signs to the left of the pub, it seems that the George may
have also served petrol, as well as beer! This wasn't unusual in the
inter-war years but with not very many cars on the road in the
1920s/30s, its doubtful that the George's filling station would ever
have been that busy. |
