Paradise Street
Only known that it was somewhere in Paradise Street in 1854 with John
Wray as licensee. However, in 1855 reference has been seen to a pub called
the "Flower of Kent" the same street and same licensee. One of them must be
an error, but which one is it? My guess is on the "Man of Kent."

From the Dover Telegraph and Cinque Ports General
Advertiser, Saturday 27 January, 1855. Price 5d.
John Wray, landlord of the "Flower of Kent," Paradise Street, was
fined £2 and costs for opening his house before the time allowed by law,
viz., twenty-five minutes before 12 o'clock.

From the Dover Telegraph and Cinque Ports General
Advertiser, Saturday 17 February, 1855. Price 5d.
John Wray, the landlord of the "Man of Kent," Paradise Street,
appeared on a summons charging him with harbouring some of the
Staffordshire Militia when the picket called at his house, but as no
prosecutor appeared, the case was ordered to stand over till Monday. The
Bench on this case occasion administered Wray for his conduct, by which
he had rendered himself to a penalty of £20 or six month's imprisonment.
As the sole object of Col. Talbot was to prevent a repetition of the
offence, it is probably that the caution of the magistrates will have
the desired effect, and that no further proceedings will be taken.
