South Eastern Gazette - Tuesday 23 November 1852.
TO BREWERS AND SMALL CAPITALISTS. FISHMONGERS LANE BREWERY, TO BE SOLD
OR LET, With Early Possession, Valuable and compact FREEHOLD BREWHOUSE,
with the buildings and appurtenances belonging thereto, and in great
part newly erected, now in the occupation of Mr. Thos. Mackney. And also
the newly-erected BEER SHOP adjoining the above, called the Fishing
Boat. The above premises are situate close to the Market-place, Dover,
and are also convenient for supplying the Waterloo crescent,
Marine-parade, and the best parts of Dover, and offer a good opportunity
for any one, with a small capital of about £100 or £200, of entering
into the brewery business. The premises are also conveniently situated
for store for any larger brewery wishing to obtain or extend connexion
in Dover. For particulars apply to Mr. Elwin, Solicitor, Castle-street,
Dovor. |
The above mention that this pub called the "Fishing Boat" being newly
built in 1852 suggests that the one listed as "near the Docks" in 1750 is in
fact a different premises. Less of course the main docks were in fact this
near and the new build was on the same site.
An apt title that. Sometimes described as an inn as early as 1848 but by
1865 the sign was "Prince of Wales"
and locally referred to as the Feathers for obvious reasons.
