PUB LIST PUBLIC HOUSES Paul Skelton

Earliest 1849

(Name from)

Birmingham Arms

Latest 1874+

(Name to)

200 High Street

Chatham

 

The premises was operating under a Full License by 1872 and was owned by James Hulkes of Frindsbury.

I believe the High Street has been renumbered on more than one occasion as prior to 1849, when this was known as the "Red Lion" I believe it was numbered 335 High Street.

Some time after 1874 the street was renumbered and I believe the pub also changed name to the "Coach Makers Arms."
