PUB LIST PUBLIC HOUSES Paul Skelton

Earliest 1806

Duke's Head

Latest 1802

(Name to)

Short Street

Deal

 

The building can be traced back to 1661 when a Richard Wildes took a lease on the building but it is not believed it was running as a public house at the time, and from 1675 to 1734 it was operating as a blacksmiths, and in 1795 as a butchers.

It is first known to be operating as a public house owned by the Cobbs brewery of Margate between 1806 and 1817, Edward Iggulden being the then brewer.

By 1802 the name had changed to the "Lord Nelson." Although I do have reference to it still being called the "Duke's Head" as late as 1806, if indeed this is the same building.
