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 Woolwich, 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.

 

From the Southeastern Gazette, 13 February 1866.

WOOLWICH. Suicide of an Omnibus Proprietor.

On Wednesday morning, at about half-past eight o’clock, the body of Mr. William Lewis Rogers, proprietor of an omnibus which plys between Charlton and Greenwich, was found hanging to the staircase of his house in Denmark-terrace, Lower-road, by a piece of rope, and quite dead. He had left the “Rose of Denmark,” a beerhouse next door to his residence, at eleven o’clock the previous night, being then the worse for drink. Deceased was well known as the conductor of his omnibus.
