Formerly the "World's End" but as yet do not know when the name changed.

 

This pub is one in the list of my "Project 2014."

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.

Trafalgar Maid, Warner Street, Chatham could be demolished and flats built in its place.

Another Medway pub could be demolished and apartments built in its place, as the demand for housing land intensifies.

Plans have been submitted to develop the site of the Trafalgar Maid in Warner Street, Chatham which has been closed for several years.

The applicant intends to knock down the former pub and build one one-bed and five two-bed flats in its place. The new building will be the same size as the existing one.

There will also be undercroft parking and two visitor spaces next to the property, which will see the footpath reduced to a width of 2m and a street lamp relocated.

It is the latest in a series of applications which have seen pubs across the Town replaced with housing.
