Town of Ramsgate, 288 High Street , Wapping, E1W 2PN
Wapping index
at 62 Wapping High Street by 1895 due to road renumbering; The only historic pub of Wapping High Street which still stands. Formerly the Red Cow [Address for Red Cow given as both Reardon Path and Anchor & Hope Lane at various times] and also the Prince of Denmark. The claimed date for foundation of this pub is 1545. **
According to the website: portcities.org.uk/london......
'The Town of Ramsgate pub on Wapping High Street. The first alehouse on the site was built in 1460. Formerly known as the Red Cow, it acquired its present name in 1688 to attract trade from the Kentish fishermen who used to land their catch at Wapping Old Stairs. The Inn has a famous association with Judge George Jeffreys. Following the flight abroad of James I I, Jeffreys attempted to follow him. Disguised as a seaman, he hid on board a vessel moored in the Thames but rashly came ashore for a drink in the Red Cow, an act that led to his recognition and arrest.' ; The Pub is later at 62 Wapping High Street after a renumbering exercise.

Regan. Q. What turning did this man take out of Union-street? A. Down Whitecross-street, and I followed\emdash you had on a black coat, and a Guernsey under it, and cord trousers.
COURT. Q. Had you known him before? A. Yes; for two or three months\emdash I am quite sure he is the man.
HENRY HACKETT (Policeman, M 176). On Friday morning, the 18th, I was in Mint-street, Borough, and saw the prisoners together coming out of King-street into Mint-street\emdash I stopped them, and found this tin box on Ellman\emdash I did not see the other constable there\emdash I put my hand in Ellman's pocket, and asked him what this was\emdash he said, "Nothing"\emdash I did not take it out then\emdash the other constable came out of King-street, and I gave Ellman to him to take to the station, while I pursued Regan, who had run up Mint-street and got away altogether\emdash I next saw him on the following Wednesday, in the Duke's Head public-house, in Redcross-street\emdash I went into the room, and told him I wanted him for being concerned with little Bill in a tin box robbery over the water, on Friday morning\emdash he said, "You are mistaken"\emdash I said, "No, I am not"\emdash policeman, M 163, asked him where he was that night, and he said he was at work at the water side from 12 o'clock on Thursday till 2 o'clock on the Friday morning\emdash I took him in custody\emdash I am certain he is the man\emdash I knew him before.
Ellman. He took us down to the station. Witness. I took neither to the station on the Friday; I went in pursuit of Regan.

Ellman's Defence. This man stopped me and asked me to cary the box. I did not know what was in it at the time. He gave me some coppers for Myself, and when I got further on he gave me the handkerchief to carry.
Regan's Defence. I was never in this man's company in my life; no one can prove I was. The policeman has seen me several nights since in Mint-street,
and would not take me; and now he says he took me one afternoon. He knows where I live, and everything else.
