Unknown Premises 1900s



Folkestone Herald 16-2-1901

Wednesday, February 13th: Before Messrs. Fitness, Wightwick, Herbert, and Swoffer, and Lieut. Col. Hamilton.

Jack Parks was summoned for having left a horse and cart unattended.

Evidence was given to show that the horse was left outside the Crown Hotel, Radnor Street, from 8.45 a.m. until 9.20 on the 8th inst., and a fine of 10s. and 9s. costs was ordered.

Note: A mystery. No house by this name is known, and the street directory for 1901 has no entry. Of course, even if this hotel existed, it may not necessarily have been licensed.
