60 John Street

Chatham

Above postcard, date unknown.

I have found four pubs with the same name. One being the "New Inn" 60 John Street, the other being the "New Inn" of 218 High Street, and the third being the "New Inn" of 291 Luton Road and the fourth being the "New Inn" addressed as Ordnance Place.

The Licensing Records of 1872 stated the premises held a Full License and was owned by John Baird of Brompton.

I am informed that this pub was destroyed by bombing action in WW2.

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.
