1928 re-build of a Victorian pub by George Beer & Ridgen Ltd six years after the company was formed by the amalgamation of the two breweries in 1922.

The former two rooms have been knocked into one but the pub retains the original 1920s panelled bar counter curved at both ends (pot shelf is modern) and half height wooden wall panelling. The mirrored bar back fitting looks more 1960s that 1928. There are two 1920s fireplaces, one at each end of the single room reflecting the two room former layout – that on the left has a stone surround painted a deep red colour with a brick interior; that on the right is smaller with a wood surround and brick interior but disused. Both the bar counter and the panelling have an attractive beading decoration which is also present on the wooden frames of the built in seating under the two front windows – as seating covers the right hand door it is modern.

The rear right function room was added in c.2010 and it is interesting to see the panelling is of the same style as the original 1928 wood in the front bar. Both metal framed windows have the original glass with acid etched decoration and the legend George Beer & Ridgen Ltd. "Kent's Best".
