Deal Borough Records 1843, Petty Sessions - J. C. Weston "Friendly Port " beerhouse, ordered to pay Rates of 18/- and 1/6d costs. Again the same licensee mentioned at the beerhouse in 6 New Street from Bagshaws directory.

I found mention of this while Googling the internet and in reference to the Clayson family of Deal.

There is mention of the 1891 census at the "Friendly Port Beer House" and a Jarvis Bing being the licensed Victualler and Publican. Also stated that his mother Sarah Bean noted as widowed and a retired Publican.

I do have reference to an "Oddfellows Arms" and it is stated that this pub changed names to the "Friendly Port" from between 1866-69, but seeing that the dates do not tally, I will suggest that it was an Oddfellows Society that met here and disbanded between those years.

 

From the Deal, Walmer, and Sandwich Mercury, 4 October, 1873.

LICENSING BUSINESS

Mr. M. Langley, as agent for Messrs. Hills and Son, brewers, applied for new licenses to be granted in his name for the "Norfolk Arms," public-house, West Street, and the "Friendly Port," New Street, the landlords in each case having omitted to apply for a renewal of their licenses. Some necessary formal evidence having been given, the applications were granted.
