The Old Jail Public House, Grade II listed pub in Biggin Hill, United Kingdom
The Old Jail Public House stands at the intersection of Jail Lane, displaying traditional British architectural elements from the 18th century with distinctive brick construction.
During the Napoleonic Wars, this building served as a temporary detention facility for French prisoners of war en route to Maidstone prison.
The establishment represents a traditional British public house, where local residents gathered for social events and community meetings throughout its operational period.
The building requires special permissions for any modifications due to its Grade II listed status, which protects its historical architectural features.
Fox Brewery from Green Street Green owned this establishment until 1908, when it was sold at auction to Truman, Hanbury and Buxton brewing company.
