The Canterbury UAD states that The Three Stags was the first building across the road from Church Street St. Paul's. From the Licensing Lists the innkeeper from 1846-1849 and 1855 was B. Barnes. He was also there in 1867 but in 1867 directory it was Miss O Barnes.

The Three Stags closed in 1880 so its life was comparatively short. It is now a private house.
