PUB LIST PUBLIC HOUSES Paul Skelton

Earliest 1828-

Little Rose

Latest 1843

 

Sittingbourne

 

The only reference I have found so far for this pub is in the Pigot's Directory of 1828. It was listed under Taverns and Public Houses.

In the 1841 census it was listed directly about the "Rose Inn" and Rose Tap, so I believe it must have been close if not connected to those establishments.

Further information found shows it to have been up for sale in 1836.
