Guess the Place

[MartinR]

Fordwich?  It's the tidal limit of the Stour, is that the "head"?

[CAT]

Afraid its not Bossingham, John Walker, or Beltinge, Invicta Alec. Your certainly both in the right half of the county 


This village could be regarded as at the head of a river, though its several kilometres from the sea

[Invicta Alec]

Dollies Corner, Beltinge?




Alec.

[John Walker]

And very tall women try to  hide behind hedges .


Bossingham ?

[CAT]

Sorry for the delay.

Here is my next, but where is this tranquil setting where people on bikes could stand in the middle of the road whilst 'old-timers' potter along with a bucket and stick?

[KeithG]

Yes.... You have that CAT.

Thanks smiffy:

Was one of my childhood play areas... Use to pick blackberries for my Mum and Dad opposite the top of the High Street in Tank Field about 1959.


I'll be back later today ..........

[Smiffy]

That didn't take long!

Upper Upnor High Street?

[Smiffy]

I've seen those pictures before and I'm still unsure if they date from the 19th century, or if they belong to some kind of later reenactment. I believe Holcombe itself dates from the 1890's.


The view seen in this photo isn't a million miles from what you'd see now...

I went to school here. Its Holcombe - was Chatham Tech, now a Grammar school.

Same here, I was there 62-66   A recent Head Boy was putting something together on the history of the place; and had a number of pics of the place from different viewpoints. This was one of them. This view is surrounded by new builds now.


Over to you Smiffy.
