The Foresters Arms was situated on Camden Road. Also known as Jaks and Murphys.

This pub was know as the cleanest most well kept pub in Tunbridge Wells.  I remember it at least 56 years ago was run by what seemed to me then an older couple probably in their late 50s. Although the inside was ‘traditional’ it was bright and shinny everywhere even the traditional pump handles were glistening. I occasionally popped in for a quick half.The clientele appeared to me to be upright decent working class people - salt of the earth so to speak.
