18 Delf Street

(Sandwich)

Kelly's Directory 1899 mentions "Ye Old New Inn" in Delf Street, under the rule of Mrs Georgina Knox.

Only other information I have found to date is a mention of licensee Edward S. Smith in 1954, who voted in favour of the extensions to the licensing hours to 10.30 summer time, at the annual licensing sessions February 1954.

Also found reference in Kelly's Directory 1934, titling the house again as "Ye Old New Inn" without the the in the middle, so I'll be removing that eventually. This time an address is given as number 18 Delf Street. Perhaps this is one and the same as the "New Inn" listed at number 13 Delf Street.

More information hopefully to follow.
