Tile Kiln, etc. (owner John Smallbrook, occupier himself)
Location: just north of 444, on the west side of Church Road, just south of

Parts of both 444 and 448 may survive
under the car park of the Ring of Bells. The 1860s pub was built over part
of 448: the current Ring of Bells opened in 1939 behind the smaller
building, which was demolished.
