It appears to have been tied to a brewery owned by the prominent Sandwich
family, the Wyborns to 1822. In 1764 William Wyborn, brewer, died and his
business was left to his daughter Mary, who had married John Bradley. Their son,
William Wyborn Bradley was born in 1752 William being described as "common
brewer of Sandwich." William was elected Mayor Sandwich in 1785 and died in
1788. The Sandwich brewery and its tied estate of 27 pubs was eventually put up
for "sale by private contract" by William's son (also called William Wyborn
Bradley, born 1779) as advertised in the Kentish Gazette on 10th May 1822. This
makes me wonder whether it had a different name before the sale.

From the Dover Telegraph and Cinque Ports General
Advertiser, Saturday 30 August, 1834. Price 7d.
Thomas Johnson was indicted for burglary and robbing in a
dwelling-house. Mrs. Ashman, landlady of the "Two Brewers," in Sandwich,
and her servant, deposed to the breaking open of the house in April
last, and that a case bottle, containing about three pints of brandy was
stolen there-from. The prisoner was apprehended in Wingham, having
offered some brandy in a similar bottle for sale, at Ash. He confessed
the robbery, but as the evidence did not sufficiently establish the
burglary, he was found guilty of the minor offence, and sentenced to
seven years' transportation.

Obviously an Inn that catered for lodgers as can be shown from the
following email I received recently, as below. Apparently it was referred to
as a lodging house in the 1871 census.

From an email received 9 April 2012.
According to the
UK Census of 1861, my Great, Great, Great, Uncle Thomas Jezzard (Born
circa 1815) was the Innkeeper of the "Two Brewer's Inn". Other residents
at the time of the census were his wife Eliza Jezzard (nee Hirst) and
his son George Jezzard (Born circa 1840) who was a Fisherman. Also
resident at the time of the census were 15 "lodgers"
Thomas Jezzard was the younger brother of my Great, Great, Great,
Grandfather George Jezzard (Born circa 1807).
The Jezzard family feature quite extensively in the commercial world
of Sandwich, My Grandfather (John Jezzard born circa 1875) having been a
respected Tobacconist in King Street Sandwich and even my own Mother had
a small confectionery shop in Strand Street shortly after her marriage
to my Father William Kimber.
Regards,
John Kimber.

Hi,
I am researching my family history and have found from the 1871
census that my Great Great grandparents John Small (cutler) aged 22 and
Matilda Small (hawker) aged 19 were lodgers at the Inn. Louisa Gatehouse
who was Matilda's sister also a hawker aged 17 also loved there along
with:-
Alfred, Sarah, Ester, William, Rose E, and Charles HELLENDER.
