Stage Coach Village
A Memory of Eastry.
Eastry has a Roman Road through it but was also important as a place where we imagine important people stopped on the drive between Dover and Sandwich, the Cinque Ports. The Bull Pub on the left behind the trees, had a cobbled courtyard to the rear and room for horses and carriages. I assume some of the buildings date back 400 years, and perhaps the house in the distance could have been the toll house - it was Haddins to us. The Five Bells also had plenty of room back and front for picking up and dropping people off. The Plough Pub likewise, except, along with the Bull denote farming uses. The Trough also clearly indicates horses stood waiting for the drinkers to re-emerge.
