Lower end of East Street

Gravesend

This was on the north side East Street 1691-1527 on the site of Becketts or Woods Brewery, St Andrew's Gardens, but with no exact address. This could indicate that the pub has been renamed or that the records are wrong or incomplete.

I have reference to this pub and a note that says it may also have been the "Bell and Green Dragon." Also, I have a note that says in 1727 it had connections with the Beckett's and Wood's Brewery.

It may also be the pub also called the "Golden Last" which was extant 1775-1779 which may also have been called the "Boot" and thus easily confused with "Boat."

The "Stowboat" has also been referred to as the "Boat" in its shortened name.

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.
