It is suggested that this could well be the same "Queen's Arms" listed in Windmill Street as early as 1633, as the High Street used to stretch to some point near Tivoli House.

 

From the Kentish Gazette, 27 October 1840.

GRAVESEND.

On Tuesday, as Mr. Quitter, was upon the point of entering a cart, to which he had just harnessed a valuable horse, at the door of Woodgate, the "Queen’s Arms," Windmill-street, the horse reared, and coming down suddenly, broke his leg so severely, as to render it necessary to slaughter the valuable animal on the spot.
