Reference to this pub has been found in 1860. However, I also know of a "Rose
Inn" in the High Street in Whitstable, and also a "Rose
in Bloom" in nearby Seasalter.
I also have reference to this being for sale in 1857 but addresses as the
Wall, Seasalter.
Christopher Richford suggests that this was what is now known as Tardis
House and addressed as 122 Island Wall.

WHITSTABLE. CHARGE AGAINST A BEER HOUSE KEEPER.
On Saturday last, Stephen Hunt, the keeper of a beer house at Seasalter,
was charged before the county justices, at St. Augustine's petty
sessions, with having drawn beer before the hour of half-past 12 on
Sunday morning, the 29th of April.
Police-constable Smith, K.C.C.,
deposed that he was passing a stable belonging to defendant, in which he
saw two men, who had some money in their hands. Thinking they were going
to pay for some beer, witness (who was in his private clothes) passed on
as if he was going away. He then saw the defendant go into the stable,
and witness immediately followed him. He asked the defendant if he had
drawn any beer that morning, and he replied that he had not. Witness
then looked into a manger, behind where the two men were standing, and
there found a quart bottle, concealed under some straw, containing beer.
In reply to witness, defendant said he knew nothing about the beer, but
he thought the men had taken it there on Saturday night, having got it
from the "Rose and Crown." The constable ultimately inquired at the
"Rose and Crown", and was informed that the statement of the men was
incorrect, and that they had just been in and requested the landlord to
say that they took the beer from his house. Superintendent Walker here
applied to the bench to adjourn the case for a week, in order that he
might get witnesses from the "Rose and Crown."
The case was accordingly adjourned.
