replaced in 1817 by a purpose built theatre which provided entertainment for
many years. The New Inn itself, suffered in the second world war and was

From the Dover telegraph, 30 November 1833. The last meeting for the
Catch Club for this year, was held at the New Inn Assembly Room, on
Tuesday evening, when a most numerous and respectable party were
delighted with a series of the best modern compositions, of the most
celebrated masters, by the scientific and effective orchestra, under the
direction of their talented leader, Mr J Harrison. The performances this
season have been so much superior, both in respect to the style as well
as the execution of the music as to draw forth universal plaudits from
the subscribers and visitors.
The chairman, Lieutenant Hooper, who greatly enhances the enjoyment
of the company by his judicious and spirited conduct, announced that the
meetings would be resumed on Tuesday, 7th of January next, and continued
every alternate Tuesday, for the season.
