Kentish Gazette, 3 February 1852.

Edenbridge. Melancholy Death.

An inquest was held at the "White Horse Inn," on Thursday, on the body of Mr. James Golding, who was found drowned in a mote, near his residence, on Tuesday morning, the 20th instant; the deceased has for many years been in the employ of T. Alexander, Esq., as bailiff, and was much respected. The jury, after hearing the witnesses, returned a verdict of "Found Drowned." The deceased was 42 years of age, and has left a wife and large family.

 

I am informed that this is now (2017) a Costa Coffee shop.
