Earliest 1839-

Marquis of Granby Inn

Latest 1919

(Ash)

 

Only details I have so far regarding this public house is that it was closed in 1919 on the ground of redundancy. The "Good Intent" in the same village was also closed that year.

 

From the Dover Express and East Kent Intelligencer, 9 February, 1877. Price 1d.

WINGHAM PETTY SESSIONS

John Bourne, innkeeper, of Ash, was summoned for selling and allowing to be consumed on licensed premises, sixpenny-worth of gin to a boy under 16 years of age, in contravention of the Licensing Act. The defendant keeps the "Marquis of Granby" public house, and it appeared that on the morning of the 14th of January a number of small boys entered his house, and in response to the demand of one of them were supplied with the gin, which they consumed on the premises. A second quantity was ordered but it was refused, and the lads left the house. Defendants excuse was that the spirit was supplied in his absence by his daughter who was ignorant of the law.

Fined 20s., the full penalty, and 15s. costs.
