Upper Street

(Tilmanston)

Above picture kindly sent to me by Kathleen Hollingsbee, showing a painting by Ron Ayres, of an even older painting of the "Pig and Whistle" in the late 1800s. The original is still somewhere in the village.

Information kindly supplied by Kathleen Hollingsbee.

This pub was situated in the upper part of the village, opposite the end of Vicarage Lane and adjacent to Forge Cottage and became the Old Bakery around about 1900 when the Lawrence family had a shop, Post Office and bakery there. The house is now a private dwelling.
