Latest 1899+

(Name to)

17 Frindsbury Road

Strood

 

This was mentioned in a book called the "History of Strood" by Henry Smetham, published 1899 who says it was situated on the north-west end of Frindsbury Road.

When the original "Cobham Inn" burnt down in the High Street, the license was transferred to this pub and I believe the name changed shortly after to the "New Cobham Inn." Unfortunately I do not yet know when this happened.
