THE ICE CREAM PARLOURS

The Ice Cream Palour opposite the Royal Hotel was owned By the Divito Brothers;  The rear Garage part of this property was used for the weigh in of fish when the boat competitions were held.

The Corner Parlour at the top of Broad Street was owned by Jean , these were a haunt for many of us:

Roger Divito has kindly sent these cartoons to me,  do you remember those days?

The cartoons below were drawn by  Jeremy Owen; a customer of Tony Divito,  and were displayed, along with many others he drew, under the glass table tops in the ice cream parlour. They reflect some of the cliental at the time.

Deal Kent, Sandown Castle

Sandown Mill

The Mill was erected in 1787, with the object of supplying flour to the public at reasonable prices. it was said at the time in question there was a "ring" to keep up prices of a comodity which was in much demand for the ships often anchored in large numbers in the Downs. The Sandown was outside the ring and the undertaking was run by Thomas Oakley, brewer; banker and shipping agent of the town.

The name appears several times in the list of Mayors of Deal, a similar name appears in 1730, when against the name of

" Thomas Oakley" is the entry "died" 1765
