Denwood Street Crundale
The building dates back to about 1760, and was formerly a private house, in 1870 it became a shop and later gained a license to sell beers and ended up as a public house. The pub doubled as a shop till at least 1953 when Sydney Curtis was licensee, who was described as the licensee and shop keeper. I have been informed by Michael Mirams that the pub closed in 1957, he says it was sold de-licensed in February 1957 to a Frank Harvey for £1,000. In 2002, it was on the market for £400,000! The above info gleaned from David Harper's book 'Whitbread - The Inn Behind The Signs.' My guess is that the inn sign was left standing until removal after 1986.
Project 2014 has been started to try and identify all the pubs that are and have ever been open in Kent. I have just added this pub to that list but your help is definitely needed regarding it's history. As the information is found or sent to me, including photographs, it will be shown here. Thanks for your co-operation.
