20 (63) High Street (also 24)

Gravesend

 

Found in 1623 as the "White Lion" and remained with this name till 1727, it then changed to the "Bell" till 1753. The following year the name had changed to the "Greyhound" and remaining operating with this name till 1790. The following year it was seen to be called the "Rose" till 1854. Next trace at this address is 1856 under the name of the "Freemason's Arms" and no mention after 1862.

 

A little bit of confusion with this one, as I have another account that says the "Greyhound" changed name to the "Old Parr's Head" in 1799 to 1891. Then in 1891 to the "Empire" which lasted till 1914.
