Dew Drop Inn, Littlehampton

Terraced pub dating back to 1849, formerly a Henty & Constable pub that expanded into private quarters around 1965, passing into Allied hands, then to Gales before purchase by the present landlord in1985. Until c.1965 the pub consisted of the right hand side only where there were two small rooms and an off sales at the rear with the original entrance being at the front and all this was merged into the present public bar. The oldest fittings are the dado panelling on the left and front walls with some bench seating attached on the left which may be Victorian. The front section had fully panelled walls but in 1987 the top part was cut back. The counter looks old but could be from c.1965, the bar back dates from 1965 but could be 1980s and there is a panelled ceiling in the front section. Note the very 1960s lino-tiles on the floor.

The saloon bar on the left was private living accommodation up to c.1965 and retains its early 20th century glazed brick fireplace. The bar back with mirror mosaic date from c.1965 but the bar counter, wrought ironwork and all wooden panelling was added in 1987.
