15 High Street

Canterbury

 

According to Edward Wilmot in his book "Inns of Canterbury" this house was originally called the "Queen's Head," and owned by Rigden's the brewers and mentioned as being an 18th century house, but only known for certain in a directory dated 1803, changing name to the "White Horse" in 1837 and then the "Chequers" for a few years until 1848 when it changed name again to the "Bell."

However, I have found reference to it being mentioned as the "White Horse" in 1802.
