 Situated on the picturesque banks of the river
Darent, with a variety of wild
and tame animals-ducks, geese, chickens, doves, budgies, owls and goats. The
Fighting Cocks has been a pub since 1818. It was named in 1821 by John
Muggeridge after several offences for cock fighting. Although the sport was prohibited
in 1849, clandestine meetings were held many years after, and the cockpit
remained until the mid twentieth century.
