Name Dates Comments David Burrage 1947/1952 George Craddock and his Wife ran this pub when I knew it. It was a "Football" pub frequented by "Gills" supporters. George himself was a keen supporter of "The Gills". I was an artificer apprentice in the above period and used The British Queen as a meeting place to contact other apprentices and friends during leave periods. I don't know why this pub was chosen as it was a Style and Winch house and the beer was not to everybody's taste.
