On Wednesday the Folkestone Magistrates agreed to the transfer of the licences of three public houses from the tenants to
Mr. R. P. Rawlings, Managing Director of Messrs. Mackeson and Company, Ltd., Hythe Brewery.
The houses concerned were the South Foreland, licensee,
Mr. F. Jordan; the Alexandra, licensee, Mr.
F May; and the True Briton, licensee, Mr. D. Martin.
Agreeing to the transfer
of his licence, Mr. Jordan said he was doing so providing
that when it was renewed he would have an opportunity of taking possession
again.
Mr. May said the same, adding that under the present
circumstances the Brewery were welcome to the licence. It was stated that Mr. May had been
provided with another licensed house.
Mr. Hebden Phillips, of Hythe Brewery, told the
Magistrates that all the applications would come before them again some time. The
Brewery Company, he said, hoped to re-open all the houses and the tenants would
be able to make application for the licences again. Everything was "all
fair and Square"; it was done by arrangement with the tenants.
Note: These transfers are not listed in More
Bastions.
