Jolly Sailor

The Jolly Sailor, a pub dating from the 17th century, overlooks Hythe Quay on the River Blackwater, where Thames Sailing Barges are moored. During the 19th century these flat-bottomed vessels would have navigated the narrow creeks collecting and delivering produce to the farms around this peninsula.
