The Robert Pocock, Gravesend -JD Wetherspoon

This pub is named after the printer and publisher who introduced Gravesend’s first printing press, in 1786, and opened the town’s first library at the back of his high-street shop, where he published illustrated children’s books, including Reading Made Easy and, in 1797, The History of Gravesend and Milton – the first history book of Gravesend.
