Good Intent, Deal

From the East Kent Mercury, 24th November, 1981

Above picture shows the "Good Intent" public house, which stood near Sandown Castle, where, in fact, the "Sandown Castle" public house now stands. From the picture (date unknown) it appears the pub is closed and boarded up, but a workman has a bottle of stout to drink.

 

Pigots Directory mentions the "Good Intent" near to Sandown Castle in 1824.

The Deal Licensing Records of 1828 refer to it as an alehouse.

The text Good Intent (P.H.) is shown on Kent Sheet 58.04 (LVIII.16 on the reverse of LVIII.4) being a reprint of ‘First Edition 1873’ Old Ordnance Survey Maps published by Alan Godfrey Maps.

Located on coastal and south side of ruins of Sandown Castle.
