The Fullers Arms was situated on Brightling Road. This grade-II listed pub is now used as a private dwelling, having previously been a restaurant following closure.

Around 1985/6 I had business with British Gypsum and made several visits to their mine at Brightling.  On those occasions we usually had a snack lunch at the Fullers Arms.  There is just one thing about that place that sticks in my memory - the excellence of the steak and kidney pie. I am pretty certain that the place was in the Good Pub Guide, which had started a few years earlier, as I had heard of the pub before becoming involved with the mine.
