Old House at Home

Formerly the Ball beer house from 1862 to 1866. Richard Ball applied for a full licence in 1861 but was refused. Sometime after this it acquired the name: The Old House at Home. ‘Ye’ was added in 1907.

It was described as located ‘nearly opposite the Cinque Ports Arms on the high pavement and in bad weather its customers did not like crossing over the road’ to the Cinque Ports Arms which as a fully licensed pub, closed later in the evening. In 1872 the licensee was summonsed for opening after 11pm. It closed in 1911.
