Thanks KeithG


That one was more luck than anything - I happened to be lucky with my first search area for a change.


Next one - another church.  Not well hidden.

That one is well hidden.  I could just make out the shadow of the spire on Google Earth.


St, Margarets Church, Wychling ?

Apologies Keith.  I just saw the "Elmley Island / Marshes" line in the RSS preview, "The Lillies" was off the bottom of the screen.  Well done, you are correct, over to you.

Right shoot999.  So now you've got the place, what are the islets called?  In passing the photo was taken from the Saxon Shore Way, that's what the sign is for.

Further along the Swale is Harty Island?

Coming into the Swale from the  West you go upstream to Milton Creek so the red buoys are on the left (port side).  Coming into the Swale from the East you also go upstream to Milton Creek. So again the red buoys are on the left(port side). Therefore the buoys switch sides at the entrance to Milton Creek?

Keith, you're so nearly there.  The view is from the south of the Swale.  Keep thinking about Milton, you were right about the buoyage reversing, but it was nothing to do with how busy a port is.  All we need is the name of the islands.

The Swale near Conyer Creek.  Sea bed is privately owned - are the buoys related to that,  Oyster beds?
