Summary

[edit]
Description
English: The Sovereign of the Seas. The name of this pub derives from an historic link with the Petts Family, after which Petts Wood (the original woodland, from which the name of the 1930s residential development was in turn derived). The Petts family were leading shipbuilders from the 15th to 17th centuries, and the Sovereign of the Seas, designed in 1634 by Phineas Pett for Charles I and entering service in 1638, was the most magnificent ship of the 17th century. She was renamed the Royal Sovereign on the accession of Charles II. For further information see http://www.royalnavy.mod.uk/server/show/nav.3899. The pub, operated by Wetherspoons, was opened on 1 March 1995, ending the 60 year monopoly of the Daylight Inn (see 1098681) as the only pub in Petts Wood.
