Inns & Public Houses
Until very recently there were many establishments in Southborough providing food, accommodation and alcoholic beverages. Those remaining are the Hand & Sceptre and the Imperial. Sadly we have lost the “Old” Bell Inn, Crown Inn, “New” Bell Inn, Flying Dutchman, Bat & Ball, Royal Oak and the Beehive - the buildings may still exist but have either been redeveloped or are awaiting a future purpose.
The Brick Works has survived in High Brooms but we have sadly lost the Long Bow Inn.
