The only reference I have found so far for this pub is in the Pigot's Directory of 1832 and 1840.

I have also seen this addressed as in Platt which is a mere 1 mile apart. However, I am informed this is near to Claygate Cross.

Kent Times, 12 July 1862.

The sessions were special for highways and for the transfer of alehouse licenses.
