THE MERMAID INN, BISHOPSBOURNE
The pub was built in 1861 as a tap house for estate workers and was originally known as the Lions Head.
When Sir John Prestige acquired the estate, the name was changed to the Mermaid because a mermaid featured on Sir John's coat of arms.
The pub was extended in 1968.
Renowned for its real ale, The Mermaid has appeared in the Campaign for Real Ale's (CAMRA's) Good Beer Guide for 18 successive years.
The home cooked bar meals are delicious.
The surrounding countryside is ideal for walking and Howletts Zoo Park is nearby.
