PUBLIC HOUSE OFFENCES
Charles Alfred Smith, landlord of the "Lord Warden," public-house,
Mill Road, was summoned, upon the information of the Superintendent of
Police, for having his house open before half-past 12 on Sunday, the
23rd inst., viz., at a quarter to 12. Defendant did not deny the fact,
and gave the following explanation:- The mother of his servant, Mrs.
Moss, occasionally came in to help her daughter, as she had not been
well for some time. She was there on Sunday last, and when she had done
her work in the morning Mrs. Smith gave her some lunch and with it some
beer, but the old lady preferred taking it home, and just as she left
the house the Superintendent came to the door.
After consulting together, the Magistrates said that although
defendant had broken the law, still they thought it was more in
ignorance and they had no desire to record a conviction against him, and
they would therefore allow the summons to be withdrawn if he paid the
costs, 6s. 6d.
Defendant at once paid the money, and said that he was out for a walk
on the morning in question, or in all probability the offence would not
have occurred. He had always kept a respectable and orderly house, but
he was obliged to have the house open on Sunday to enable the tenants to
fetch their water.

chopping down an old wooden out-house on Wednesday afternoon last, when
he accidentally brought the hatchet across his hand, severing the tops
of the two fore-fingers.

From the Deal, Walmer, and Sandwich Mercury,
15 December, 1900.
SANDWICH POLICE COURT
Stephen Tyler, labourer, and Mary Ann Adams, widow, both of Deal,
were charged with being drunk and disorderly, near the "Lord Warden,"
the previous evening.
P.C. Hogben said he was called about 9.45 the previous evening, to
the First Lane. Defendants were then opposite the "Lord Warden." They
were both drunk and made use of very bad language. He took them into
custody, and the male prisoner became very violent, and witness had to
obtain assistance.
The Mayor said the Bench had decided to take a lenient view of the
case, and both prisoners would be sent to prison for 7 days, with hard
labour.

From an email received 30 July, 2012.
These photos were taken in the mid 1980's when I was a regular customer here.
The photo above is myself and my mate wearing the glasses.
The picture above showing the two bar maids.
I would love to see any more photos if possible.

From an email received 6 August, 2012.
Please find below one picture I can find of my late father when he
was the licensee at The Lord Warden pub in Deal c. 1980.
I believe that the barmaid closest in the picture above was a Lyn or
Michelle Fox who lived just across the road from the pub – I may be
wrong though.
Regards
Paul Foster.

A Charrington & Co. outlet in 1974.
Been informed that it closed some time after October 1988, one local
tells me he heard a conversation inside regarding the death of local Charles
Hawtrey, which happened on 27 October 1988.
Unfortunately demolished and new buildings put on the site. Thanks to
Patricia Streater for that information. She follows up by saying "The
Hamilton Road end of this building was an Alldays store but is now a
Co-Operative. The other end, with the address of 185 Mill Road, is a Chinese
& Oriental Cuisine Takeaway and a Co-Operative shop.
