From an email received from Yvonne Harris, 25 April, 2009.
In 1821 Richard Cory is recorded as a victualler licensee of the
Noah Ark Inn. The house had a rateable value of £6 the stables and sheds
£1. 10s and the land £4.15s. In the 18th century the heyday of the Deal Smugglers, contraband goods
were landed by luggers and then taken inland by horsemen. The Noah's Ark
Inn was used to stable their horses. It was situated amid fields and
gardens at the rear of the town." Richard's son John born in the
pub in 1821 was later licensee of the "Deal
Hoy". Regards, Yvonne Harris.
