The Dover-Kent Archive and Closed Pub website entries in the links below contain several other pictures of the pub during its life before closure.
Following the pub's closure, the ground floor premises of the building have had a chequered history, as can be seen by looking at past Google Street View maps. The picture showing the green-fronted premises and the closed carpet shop next door was taken on 29 April 2013. The remaining two pictures, showing the Blue Mountain together with the adjacent Rayz business, and the Blue Mountain sign attached to the pub's original bracket, were taken on 15 April 2015.
