Guess the Place

[MartinR]

No, your directions weren't wrong, I'd vectored ENE as NNE and got a cross from the Barton's Point ESE vector at around Shellness.  Once I "got my bearings" right, I chased along the North Kent shore until I came to Herne Bay Memorial Park, which indeed does have bowls, tennis and a memorial nearby.  I suspect that the outer Thames Estuary/North Sea is a "much larger volume of water"!  GSV even has someone preparing a model boat on the lake.  Camera was at:

• Nat Grid:                  TR1765167759
• Nearest Post Code: CT6 5RD
• Co-ords (WGS84):   51°22'02"N,001°07'31"E or 51.367167,1.125380

which is on the footpath around the lake on the eastern side looking north-west.

Are we still on the Island then?  Somewhere near the Isle of Harty?

Not on the island.  Unless I've got my directions wrong, you need to head ENE from your Faversham Lakes guess for a few miles.

War Memorial Close by.
(Remember that the wide angle lens makes it look larger than it is)

Much larger volume of water 1/2 Km away.

Further clue:  Boats can be seen on this lake.

Thanks for the coordinates MartinR

Not Moat Park - this lake is quite a bit smaller.

I'll take a punt at Mote Park.

Sticking to Stewie's lake theme    - where is this?


Wide angle lens makes it look bigger than it is.

Thanks Stewie,  I went to see the ski slope many years ago but wasn't aware of the lake and country park.  Must look in next time I'm in the area.


Next one up soon.
