The Foresters Arms, in Harwich, was damaged by incendiaries | Harwich and Manningtree Standard

These pubs, unfortunately long gone, were all popular watering holes in Harwich. One of them, the Foresters Arms, now in residential use, was in Church Street. A plaque on the side of the building says it is thought to be the oldest house in Harwich, dating back to 1450. It was an ale house from 1800 to 1941 - known locally as the Old Drum and Monkey - but seriously damaged by incendiaries during the Second World War. The building was restored in 1953 by Winifred Cooper MBE, the president of the Harwich Society, and it remained her home for nearly 50 years.
