Warren Inn
Dymchurch Road

The present building dates back to 1860, though there was an inn here for many years before then. It is partially an example of wooden weather-board construction, which is typical of south Kent and the Weald.

The name derives from the nearby rabbit warren. In the 19th century the town's Rabbit Catcher operated in this area.

The pub's sign depicts one of the horse races which used to be held here and were popular with the London gentry.

The building is said to be haunted by "Old Sid" who committed suicide in an upstairs room.
