PUB LIST PUBLIC HOUSES Paul Skelton

Earliest 1514

Saracen's Head

Latest 1666+

(Name to)

4 High Street

Gravesend

 

Originally called the "Saracen's Head" as far back as 1514, changed name to the "King's Head" after  1666 and lastly changed name again between 1727 and 1880 to the "Imperial." The pub finally closed in 1909.

However, at the same address I have reference to the "Chequers" from between overlapping dates of 1570 to1739.

 

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.
