Thank,s Beachbum. Definitely worth a Visit if only to visit the Time Tower and the Castle and the nice Pubs. Was holding off hoping some new blood would have a guess.
Next one.
Heres a rural scene. Where did I spot this tree at the roadside?

After following a number of false trails, here's the location:
Nat Grid: TR3763752810
Post: Deal Delivery Office, Stanhope Rd, Deal CT14 6AA
Coords (WGS84) 51°13'30"N 001°24'07"E or (WGS84) 51.22498,1.40203
Must visit Deal one of these days, I don't think I've ever been there.

"Dover is very warm" - not when I've visited it!
So, we are looking for a building society or post office in a town near to, and smaller than, Dover. So:
Deal
Whitfield
Folkstone
Walmer
?

I've been hunting around Canterbury, but now it seems that CT is pretty well all of the eastern half of the county. Roughly anywhere east of a line from Herne Hill to Dymchurch. From the building style it looks like a large town, Ashford or Dover?
