80.42.120.194
My Grandfather, Leslie James Holloway (b. 16 May 1916 Erith d. Jul 1989 Dartford) lived in the Kings Head, Erith, Kent for 42 years. He moved there at the tender age of two. It used to be belong to his uncle who lived next door (he had a club foot and used a crutch to get around the bar). Because of his uncle's disability, the pub was run by his parents, James and Emma Holloway. He once recalled beer being 4d a pint and tobacco was fourpence ha'penny a packet. I have been unable to find any photos of the now defunct pub or it's past history so would appreciate any offers of help. Many thanks.
