The King's Head Public House, Beech Street, Deal, Kent


Early C19. 3 storeys brown brick, ground floor stuccoed. 3 windows, one of which is a 1st floor bay. Doorcase with pilasters and open pediment over. Nos 1 to 19 (odd) form a group. The Kings Head, is a public house which is well known for the annual display of flowers that adorn the building, it is a traditional English seaside Inn which offers B&B, traditional ales and a range of Bar food. The Deal History Society give a date as early as 1824 for this pub, although the building I believe goes back as far as 1764, according to the plaque shown above. But according to a passage read in the Mercury 1969 regarding a "Song of Deal", is dated as far back as 1721.
