The building now occupied by the Manor Farm pub & restaurant used to be the Gas showrooms as can be seen from this old photo.
The Manor Farm Pub and Beefeater restaurant in High Street Rainham Kent used to be the Gas Showrooms for the area. The gas showrooms were built around 1928 and converted to Manor Farm Beefeater Pub Restaurant in the 1980s.
The photo below is of Manor Farm Beefeater pub in 2001 before the outside was painted cream colour.
The Premier Inn was added to the site in 2011 covering part of the Manor Farm pub car park.

This photo was taken shortly after the Manor farm was repainted with the current yellow over the original lattice brickwork as part of their refurbishment
The photos below are from 2010 during the winter snow
Photo of The Mulberry Tree Inn on Lower Rainham Road taken around 1905. The Mulberry tree beer house opened before 1872 and closed in 1973 as one of the last beer houses in the area which only served ales and no spirits. It was probably build to serve men building forts in the area. The photo shows the Style and Winch ales sign above the pub.
While not an old photo by any means this was the school photo taken of Rainham Mark Grammar School in summer 1988. Some of the teachers present in the photo are:
Dr Keen
Mr Lawrenson
Mrs Berry
Mr Gulston
Mrs Pilgrim
Mr Flowers
Mr Parsons
Mr Mudge
Mr Bowen
Mr Payne
Mrs Timms
Mr Kitney
Mr Wood
Mr Boothby
A larger version of the photo is available to click but is a 120 megapixel image so very slow to download and hard to open! I'll load the photo split into sections shortly
