A traditional looking pub frontage on a small square in an area of mostly old narrow streets. Shepherd Neame brewery in Faversham traces its origin back to 1698, making it Britain's Oldest Brewer as proclaimed on the front, where the brewer's name features larger than the pub name. A history of Shepherd Neame brewery is on https://www.shepherdneame.co.uk/brewery/brewery-history
