That's the place Shoot999.  I still think of it as the Roman Galley when I pass it.   


I used to run my mobile disco there some weekends in the 70s for the coach runs to Margate etc.


Over to you ....

CAT  -  Not quite as far east as Sandwich Bay


Can be seen on GSV - fairly close to a busy 'A' Road.
I believe it was built around 1936
Has been on TV

Thanks DTT .  Just looked it up and it's closed for the rest of this season.  Such a shame.

Next one...  where is this large property and what is it's history?

Looks like narrow gauge - so perhaps one of three that I'm aware of.  I don't think it's RH&D.  There's one hidden in woods which I can't recall the name of, so I'll go for the other one I do know.


The Bredgar & Wormshill Light Railway
I've not been to this one yet but hope to visit in 2021.

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.
