History of Dover Garages

Market Square

Dovorian Coaching Co - It would seem that the Dovorian Coaching Co evolved by Mr Jack Williams, a well known tonsorial & tobacconist in the Market Square, he was honorary organiser for Dover United supporters club, and in 1920 provided a booking service for transport to the matches from his premises in the Market Square. 

In 1922, a partnership between Frank Delahaye and Jack Williams formed the Dovorian Coaching Company using the premises at the Market Square, as well as Jacks original business.

I do not know the exact position of this site, nor do I know if buses were kept/garaged there, but I do know that East Kent Road Car Company had an office 22 Market Square..... could it be the same site?

In 1924 the Businesses moved to 1 Bench Street
