Above photo, 1985, kindly sent to me by Mike Barnard. Also showing the "Little Crown."

Above photo, 1985, showing a close up of the photo above, which clearly shows the dark green tiling on the side of the building.

Up to and including the 1881 census the address was given as number 222. In 1872 the owner was Mary Elizabeth Lock Berridge of Ramsgate and the premises was classed as a beerhouse.

Local knowledge, further pictures, and licensee information would be appreciated.

I will be adding the historical information when I find or are sent it, but this project is a very big one, and I do not know when or where the information will come from.

All emails are answered.

The building was being used as a grocers in the 1950s, but has since been demolished.
