Previously the "Volunteer" the prefix
"Cinque Ports" being added some time before 1872.
Unfortunately now closed, when the license was transferred on March 1949
to the "Jolly Gardener" which until then only held a beer and wine license. The former pub is now called "Cinque Port House".
More information will be added as soon as I find it.

From the Deal, Walmer, and Sandwich Mercury,
27 July, 1872. 1d.
DRUNK AND INCAPABLE
A woman named Ann Read was brought up charged with being drunk and
incapable at Walmer on the previous evening.
Spencer Clark deposed: I am one of the police-constables of the Kent
County Constabulary. Last night about eight o'clock I was on duty at
Walmer, when my attention was called by the landlord of the "Cinque
Ports Volunteer," beer-house, to a woman who was laying in his passage
in the open air. I went to the spot and found the prisoner, Ann Read,
lying there. I tried to rouse her and put her upon her legs, but she had
lost all power of herself. She was drunk, and vomiting, and she was
bleeding from the face. I was obliged to hire a conveyance to bring her
to the lock-up at Deal. She is a stranger. She had no visible means of
subsistence, and gave no good account of herself.
Prisoner admitted that she was drunk.
The Magistrate sentenced her to seven days' hard labour in Sandwich
Gaol.
