3 Adrian Street

8 Adrian Street

A fully licensed house and an outlet of the East Kent Brewery Company, Sandwich.

James Middleton present in 1883.

Disraeli, the Earl of Beaconsfield, returned to England via Dover in 1878 which may have influenced the title.

It was considered surplus to requirements in 1910, together with the "Milestone", "Pier Inn" and "Neptune Hall". During that year, £2,373 was paid in compensation but this survived a little longer. Its licence was not renewed in June 1911 and the brewer, who was the lessee, was eventually compensated with £603. Fred Sawkins the keeper got £20 and the freehold owner, £141. The street was rebuilt completely in 1937.
