Hi rpadam,

We have added the Hop and Vine (http://www.pubsgalore.co.uk/pubs/70427/).

Thanks for that.

I think it would be worth including this one in a sub-district of Gillingham - Rainham. The ME8 postcode and the fact that it's in the area known locally (but not mapped as such) as Rainham Mark reinforce this, I think. Also, it helps differentiate from the "real" Gillingham which also has a London Road (although it's actually now been re-named Sovereign's Boulevard - both are actually sections of the same road, Watling Street) and might make it easier for people to find.

On a historical note, this pub used to be called The Belisha Beacon and was a Whitbread pub (the second time today I've had Whitbread Trophy bitter called to mind) which did a good "grab a granny" (ie over 30s) disco on Thursday nights.

So I believe.

Rainham was already there, and this did seem like a reasonable fit, so I have migrated it to that location. If anyone disagrees just let me know and we will look again.

Thanks ETA
