Former disco and bars complex the Toby House is up for sale at
£105,000. The two-storey building at Grace Hill, Folkestone, has
been closed for more than a year and been on the market for over six
months. It used to be run by Mr. Mike Oliver, of Oliver’s La Clique
discotheque, Dover Road, Folkestone. The disco and its bars is up
for sale through Folkestone estate agent Daniel Smith. This freehold
also includes a nearby Victorian house at 13, Copthall Gardens.
Toby’s was once one of only a handful of discotheques for young
people in Folkestone. A season of live gigs for local and national
bands was put on in 1982 and during this period the now
chart-topping band Blancmange played there. Although the disco and
house are together in the package for £105,000, the brewery which
owns both is willing to let them go separately. Daniel Smith says
the business had a turnover of £100,000 a year. It is at present
vacant and requires “to be refitted with a new inventory”. A
spokesman said there are several parties interested in the disco
building and until a genuine offer for purchase is made the name of
the brewery is being withheld.
