Thanet's Public Houses and Hotels 19Th and Early 20Th Century Thanet’s Public Houses and Hotels 19th and early 20th Century Scope Thanet’s Public Houses and Hotels, mainly pre-20th century, gleaned from the following sources : • 1792 Universal British Directory of Trade, Commerce and Manufacture • 1823 Pigot and Co’s Directory of Kent • 1826 Pigot and Co’s Directory of Kent • 1839 Pigot and Co’s Royal National and Commercial Directory and Topography • 1847 History, Gazetteer and Directory of the County of Kent, by Samuel Bagshaw • 1851 Post Office Directory of Kent • 1867 Post Office Directory of Kent • 1890 Kelly’s Directory of Kent • 1903 Kelly’s Directory of Kent • 1841 Census of the Thanet Registration District (original) • 1881 Census of the Thanet Registration District (transcript) • 1891 Census of the Thanet Registration District (original) • 1901 Census of the Thanet Registration District (original) Arrangement Entries are arranged alphabetically, each headed by the name of a Public House or Hotel and its location within Thanet . Each entry includes a brief summary of the principal occupants, with their personal names, occupations (if recorded), and the name & ‘address’ of the establishment at the time of their occupancy. Note that over time, the name and/or address may vary : • some public houses were known by a basic name, in combination with various terms such as ‘Inn’, ‘Tavern’, ‘Hotel’, etc ~ these minor name variants appear under one heading • where the basic name appears to have changed, two headings with appropriate cross references are given ~ eg. for the Elephant & Castle and the Elephant Hotel • some references do not give the establishment’s name, and where possible it has been identified by reference to the address • where an address changed, apparently due to a change in a street’s name or numbering, this is recorded under one heading ~ it is possible that different establishments, in the same vicinity, both using the same name, are unknowingly listed under one heading • some establishments are at street corners, giving rise to the local use of alternative addresses Most entries also include a few extra details from miscellaneous sources. There is an Occupants Index starting on page 37. Abbreviations & Notations Key sources are noted in curly brackets - for example : {1890} Kelly’s Directory of Kent, 1890 {1841-468/2/19} 1841 Census, folio 19 of piece 468/2 {1881-983/81} 1881 Census, folio 81 of piece 983 {1891-725/69} 1891 Census, folio 69 of piece 725 {1901-819/73} 1901 Census, folio 73 of piece 819 {khbi} Kent Historic buildings Index, issue 1 dated 1994 Annotation is enclosed in square brackets.

This volume is intended as an Centenary index to all material published in the 'Transactions' from 1897 to 1996, to the contents of the Record Series volumes published from 1903 to 1997, and to the reports of the Excavation Section published between 1936 and 1940. Earlier indexes were published in 1951 and 1977; these are now superseded by this new Centenary index. Contents The index is in two parts: an author index, and an index to subjects, periods, and places. AUTHOR: this lists articles under the names of their authors or editors, giving the full title, volume number and page numbers. Where an article has more than one author or editor, it is listed by title under the name of each author or editor, with relevant volume and page numbers. SUBJECT: The contents of articles are indexed by subject and by place; topics of archaeological importance are also indexed by period. Cross-references are used to refer the enquirer from one form of heading to another, for example 'Abbeys' see ' Monastic houses', or from general headings such as 'Monastic houses' to the names of individual buildings. Place-names in the index are often followed by sub-headings indicating particular topics.

  • Counsel to the Inquiry's Opening Statement
    UNDERCOVER POLICING INQUIRY ___________________________________________________________________ COUNSEL TO THE INQUIRY’S OPENING STATEMENT Contents Part 1 – Overview Part 2 – Tranche 1 Phase 1 Appendix 1 – Groups reported on by the SDS as set out in the Annual Reports 1969 to 1974s Appendix 2 – Phase 1 undercover officers and Phase 1 managers PART 1 – OVERVIEW Introduction 1. This Inquiry has been set up as a result of profound and wide-ranging concerns arising from the activities of two undercover police units. First, the Special Demonstration Squad (“the SDS”) which existed between 1968 and 2008. Second, the undercover element of the National Public Order Intelligence Unit (“the NPOIU”) which existed between 1999 and 2010. Our terms of reference are wide enough to encompass all undercover policing by English and Welsh police forces in England and Wales since 1968 but we shall be concentrating primarily upon the activities of these two units. 2. It has emerged that, for decades, undercover police officers infiltrated a significant number of political and other activist groups in deployments which typically lasted for years. The information reported by these undercover police officers was extensive. It covered the activities of the groups in question and their members. It also extended to the groups and individuals with whom they came into contact, including elected representatives. Reporting covered not only the political or campaigning activities of those concerned but other aspects of their personal lives. Groups mainly on the far left but also the far right of the political spectrum were infiltrated as well as groups campaigning for social, environmental or other change.
