25 Bath Street (Pipe Street )

Gravesend

Originally known as "Noar's Ark" and changed name in 1778.

This pub has been referenced as both the "Mariner's Compass" and also just as the "Compass" during its existence, but no definite name change has been recorded to indicate a definite change of name.

Project 2014 has been started to try and identify all the pubs that are and have ever been open in Kent. I have just started to map out the pubs that exist or existed in Gravesend, but need local knowledge and photographs, old and current if you have any.

As the information is found or sent to me, including photographs, it will be shown here.

Thanks for your co-operation. Every email is answered and all information referenced to the supplier.

This page will be updated as soon as further information is found.
