Three Crowns, Rowhedge
Provided by Jim Talbot who informs:
"The Three Crowns Inn was situatednear the corner of Head Street and High Street. Said to be one of the oldest buildings in Rowhedge remaining a pub up until about the 1960's. It was renowned as a tavern used by smugglers (probably like half the pubs on the coast in England) but of sufficient renown that the Customshouse was situated very close to it. William Cheek was landlord in 1839, leasing the property from Susannah Cole. He was also a boatbuilder and part of a family of fishing folk (on my great-great grandmother's side) in that village"
