Ashford

 

There is also a "White Hart" in Ashford, Middlesex, which obviously could get confused for this one.

 

Pigot's directory of 1832 describes Thomas Reeve as a brewer.

I am not at present intending on doing comprehensive research into the Ashford area, but during my research I have found reference to this pub, so have included it here.

As time allows and I find or are sent further information or pictures regarding this pub I will be adding further information to this page.

Your help is appreciated.
