Chessington, the Bonesgate, Moor Lane 1892 (ref: c221302)
Origin Of Pub Name.
The pub was originally known as 'The Gate' - hence the sign hanging over the door. The current name is a corruption of 'Borne's Gate' from the time of the landlord whose name was Mr Borne. The pub still exists, beside the stream of the same name, Bonesgate Stream.
