Cattle Market

(Sandwich)

Above photo shows a Sunday School outing in 1890 where the pupils were boarding the carts just outside the Mermaid, shown right.

Trading in 1677, this is now the HSBC Bank in Sandwich.

Thomas Inge as mentioned in the 1840 Pigot's directory was the same as Inges celebrated Littlenbourne Ale, and the directory gave the Sandwich address as Corn Market at the time.

The building is now owned by the HSBC.
