I had a day out in Gravesend on Saturday and we took a trip out to Luddesdowne and The Cock Inn.

They've got a nice Bar Billiards table there. And four types of dartboard. And Shove ha'penny.

We also played the slightly wobbly and a bit wonky Bar Billiards table at the Three Daws pub on the riverside hamandeggerfiles.blogspot.co.uk/2015/02/bar-billiards-at-three-daws-pub-in.html

I recommended The Cock Inn at Luddesdowne to Matt Eley at Inapub magazine. There's a feature now at trade.inapub.co.uk/play/108-features7/2399-playing-the-generation-game

Also in the April 2015 magazine trade.inapub.co.uk/magazine

Here's an interesting one (non-league of course):

Picture of it here, from their Facebook:


20 miles away (30 min journey) for Sav, great opportunity for practice on a narrow table !

Somebody was trying to tell me about this a couple of nights ago but could not remember the name of the pub.

I'll take a look.

I can confirm there is a 'narrow' table in the Chequers, where we had a pleasant pint over lunch.

Table is in need of a bit of TLC and has a 'solenoid' actuated bar. Not a bad looking Thurstons table, a bit low as no height adjusters. The table was in use whilst we were there, but needs a 'D' fitting.

I'll take another look when I have time to try the table myself. Had a chat with the landlord and the past week has seen a dramatic increase i trade since the 'secret drinker' review. Unfortunately the previous incumbents had caused the pub to have a very bad name. If you are visiting do not take any notice of the website(s)  as the current landlord says they are still owned by the previous tennats.
