Beach Street

Deal

Rather patchy data regarding this one and nothing that can be said with certainly, apart from the various references found below.

The Sandwich Borough Records shows Licensed Victuallers who paid for new Inn signs, 6s. 8d, and Sureties of £5 on 12th September, 1662.

Unfortunately, no address was given and I can only assume this to be the same as the one mentioned below.

Further research show up a "Red Lion" in Beach Street in 1804, so I am hoping this to be one and the same and so giving an address at last.

Also listed, name only, in 1828 by the Deal Licensing Register.

Information taken from the Deal History Society states that there was a "Red Lion" in 1720 that by 1737 was operating under the name of "Royal Oak," but not the one in Middle Street as by 1769 this pub again changed name to the "Blue Bell," and the other "Royal Oak" wasn't selling beer to earliest known date, 1826. By this time, this pub has changed name yet again in 1789 to the "Deal Shallop" and the latest date the Society state is 1853, presumably under that name.
