PUB LIST PUBLIC HOUSES Paul Skelton

Earliest 1891-

Prince of Wales

Latest 1970s

(Name to)

School Lane

Bodsham

 

The building is 15th century and changed name to the "Timber Batts." Date of name change during the 1970s I believe.

The pub was part of the Mason's of Maidstone tied estate, taken over by Sheps in 1956. Presumably then, the pub was a Sheps house until sale into the free trade?

 

Project 2014 has been started to try and identify all the pubs that are and have ever been open in Kent. I have just added this pub to that list but your help is definitely needed regarding it's history.

As the information is found or sent to me, including photographs, it will be shown here.

Thanks for your co-operation.
