Welcome

Welcome to Even More Tales From The Tap Room.

Core dates and information on licensees tenure are taken from Martin Easdown and Eamonn Rooney`s two fine books on the pubs of Folkestone, Tales From The Tap Room and More Tales From The Tap Room - unfortunately now out of print. Dates for the tenure of licensees are taken from the very limited editions called Bastions Of The Bar and More Bastions Of The Bar, which were given free to very early purchasers of the books.

Easiest navigation of the site is by clicking on the PAGE of the pub you are looking for and following the links to the different sub-pages. Using the LABELS is, I`m afraid, not at all user-friendly.

Contrast Note

Whilst the above-mentioned books and supplements represent an enormous amount of research over many years, it is almost inevitable that further research will throw up some differences to the published works. Where these have been found, I have noted them. This is not intended to detract in any way from previous research, but merely to indicate that (possible) new information is available.

Obituary

We regret to state that Mr. George Chambers, proprietor of the Globe Hotel, The Bayle, died on Wednesday. Deceased, who was in his 45th year, had been in possession of the hostelry less than a year, but during that period, owing to his geniality and obliging manner, he made a host of friends. A man of considerable culture, he had been associated in other days with agriculture, and had travelled considerably, both in the United States and Canada. To his widow considerable sympathy is extended.

The funeral will take place today.
