Near Carter House, South Street

(1 Beach Street)

Deal

Above photos kindly sent by Patricia Streater, 9th February 2010. Showing South Foreland House as it is today at number 1 Beach Street. The picture on the left shows the entrance to the house being on the left of the picture and the address plaque stating:- "South Foreland House 1 Beach Street." This one is actually facing South Street, the building being on a corner.

This is another one mentioned by the Deal History Society, and they say that the pub was in the vicinity of Carter House. I have now identified it as being 1 Beach Street.

Elizabeth Carter being famous as the English poet and translator (1717-1806).

The only information about the pub given is that it was operating between 1854 and 1868. However, according to www.deadpubs.co.uk it is listed as being in Beach Street in 1858.

1857 the premises were not licensed as an alehouse but obviously continued selling beer as a beerhouse as shown below.

Last report from 1869, the premises were not licensed and this is the last I know of this one.
