118 or 119 (6 in 1851) Hardres Street
Ramsgate
Hardres Street, Gas Works End. Among those who has remarkable escapes
was Mr F J Pike. He was standing outside his premises, and attempted to
get in as the raid commenced. The blast of a bomb which fell in the
vicinity knocked him into the corner of the vestibule of his premises in
Hardres Street. Practically the whole of his workshops were wrecked, but
although Mr Pike was smothered in glass splinters, he was unhurt. Three
of his employees, Messrs F Sherrington, Ron Ford and Ken Amos saved
their lives by flinging themselves into the boiler room, while Mr
Sherrington, senr., escaped by lying at full length in an alley at the
rear of the premises. Seriously injured was Lewis Goodman, of the "Seven
Stars" Public House which is shown as the building on the left. (Above

Thanet Advertiser, Saturday 1 September 1883.
Frederick Livermore was summoned for being drunk on the licensed
premises of the "Seven Stars Inn" kept by George Bax, on the 22nd
instant.
Defendant pleaded not guilty.
P.C. Reynolds said he saw the defendant, who was drunk, go into the
public house named at 4:30 p.m. on the day in question. He called the
landlady's attention to the defendant's condition, and she said that she
would not serve him.
Defendant denied that he was on the premises, and said that Reynold
stopped him at the door.
Superintendent Buss said he would ask for an adjournment, in order that
he might call two other witnesses.
Defendant said he did not wish for that so he might as well have the
matter settled at once.
The Bench then inflicted a fine of 1s. and 10s. costs, or 7 days.
