Well done DTT - spot on.  As CAt has reported, Aylesham is expanding at an amazing rate.  It will be more than a village soon and I guess be classed as a small town.


For other searchers, it's at the start of Milner Avenue.



Over to you DTT.

found it, Ayelsham Parish Council Office.  I would guess that it was a mine office at some point in the past.  I had to look for a flat roof building on the KLIS map.

DTT - You are correct with Aylesham.  The current purpose of the building took me a while to find.

Not Herne Bay Pete - Head SSE - Find the village and then the building.


On a large housing development and near a railway line
Shoot999  It's within 10 miles of Canterbury. DTT - I can't find anything to say it has been a telephone exchange but it might have been.  It has a different use currently.  A place where decisions are made.
Very cunning Mr Walker
A once prosperous area went into decline but is now on the up
Very close to at least two earlier GTPs.

Not intended as a cryptic clue DTT.  It's a straight clue.

Is this a cryptic clue, John?  I have picked up "clone"; "decision" and it is ten miles from c'bury.
