"Faversham Arms" window. |
The "Faversham Arms," dates only from 1840 presumably built by
Rigden's Court Street Brewery, as part of their process of expanding the
company's tied estate, but the inn sign once boldly
displayed the town arms, including the Cinque Ports device.
The pub is in
the Ospringe Road on the outskirts of the town and built on the site of the
town's gallows the original name of the location was Hangman's Field, this
changed name in the 17th century Gallows Hole Field.
