Wingham

Only reference found so far is in the Wingham Division Ale Licence list, which shows the "Blue Anchor," Wingham, to be re-licensed for the sum of 8 shillings in 1740 indicating that the pub was present before 1740.

However, there is also an "Anchor" in the same village, but the information gained on licensees on this pub doesn't overlap with the licensee known in 1740 at this one, although the list is not conclusive, but I am going to assume the two are not connected.
