The premises were named the Angel in 1674. John Manser, was the licensee from around 1711 to 1739, followed by Jeremiah Norton. From 1769 to around 1792, the Braisted family were licensees. John Braisted, landlord, died in 1778 and his widow, Sarah took over. John Allen, then stayed for ten years.
In 1813, Lydia Hawkes. sold the “messuage commonly known as the ‘Angel’, counting house, coal yard, other yards and stables, wharf and granary” to the wealthy miller, John Strutt.
James Ward was the publican from 1823 to 1833; and sometime between 1833 and 1835 the inn was re-named the Welcome Sailor . In 1963, Grays closed the pub and sold the building to local gravel merchant Alan Brush, bringing to an apparent end all those years of serving ale. The pub re-opened in 1984 as a free house. Known as the Welcome in 2001.
