An old building close to the river that was once called the Lamb. Following previous flooding it was completely refurbished internally and a fireplace was revealed during the renovations. Updated but still retains its ancient origins. It has a large rear courtyard with covered areas to keep the weather at bay. Interesting food is available lunchtimes and evenings. It is popular for the Tuesday jam night and bands at the weekends. See media for latest information on the current band list.

Information for this venue is provided by the Maidstone & Mid Kent Branch of CAMRA
