PUB LIST PUBLIC HOUSES Paul Skelton

Earliest 1858-

Ship

Latest 1901+ (Name to)

217 (141 1874) High Street

Chatham Intra

 

The Licensing Records of 1872 stated the premises held a Full License and was owned by Edward Winch of Chatham.

The pubhistory.com web site gives the addresses as 217 High Street, but I have reference to that as being the "Kent Arms." However further information in the Kelly's directories of 1895 and 1925 give the address as 347 High Street, Rochester, and I have also seen reference to it being either 140 or 141 High Street in 1874 and earlier.

 

Kelly's Directory of 1903 give the "Kent Arms" with the same address as this, so it may have changed name between 1901 and 1903.
