Issue Two: The Lost Pubs
In 2000, there were 67 pubs in Gravesend; at one time, there had been many more. Today, just 31 are still trading. As I write, the latest to close is The Peacock, which served its last pint on 1st January this year.
The second edition of The Gravesend Journal documents some of those pubs and features an interview with John Warden from Gravesend’s first micro-pub, The Compass Alehouse – is this the future for the pub?
To make it as widely available as possible, print editions are sold at cost, £4.50, including UK postage.
I’m keen to cover any important local story. Please get in touch if you have a story to share or a subject that needs highlighting.

24 pages, A5 (145mm x 193mm), 150 gsm silk paper
