Maidstone Journal and Kentish Advertiser, Saturday 7 January 1893.
Dinner to Aged People.
On Saturday the last day of the old year, a dinner was generously
given by Mr. George Sedgwick at the Oast House adjoining the
"Buffalo Inn," at Chart Corner, to the old people of the parish. The
room was decorated with evergreens, and very prettily lighted with
Chinese lanterns. About fifty sat down to dinner, which was served
at 6:30, consisting of roast beef and Christmas pudding. Two casks
of bear were placed up in the niche, and kept going throughout the
evening. After dinner was cleared, desert was brought on, consisting
of oranges, apples and nuts. Tobacco and pipes were provided, and
the old people proceeded to make themselves sociable, and listen to
a nigger entertainment kindly provided by Mr. Killik and a few men
of Chart Corner. The evening wound up about 12:30. Mr. Sedgwick's
health being drunk after many hearty expressions of thanks for the
kindness he had so acceptably shown to his numerous aged guests.

I am informed that the pub closed around about 2010-11 and has since
been operating as a
shop or cafe called Lillypie.
