We seem to have stalled so wild guess Matfield.




I was beginning to think I was playing solitaire  ;D    Not Matfield but very close.  The view is from GSV.

Are we looking at somewhere in Paddock Wood or Pembury?

It appears that not much happened in this village but here's a few clues from Wiki.


An English cricketer was born here.
The wife of royalty grew up here.
An activist is reputed to have been born here.

Soon as I saw it !
 But I live over the road from it  ;D .
At one point before all the buildings were demolished, that particular one was used by Out of Hours Dr's. I was really poorly one evening   but as it was so close my late hubby got my son to run over there and Dr came straightaway !
I had Pleurisy,  thank goodness they were there.


It was also where my Mum had radiation treatment.


I had a smile on my face when selecting the pic  thinking of you pointing out your  window saying 'It's there!'   :)

One other thing about the demolition.
The low wall continued up the road further and when it was time to get rid of that for the new road entrance , a JCB  happened to dig through the main electric cables Flash Bang Wallop ! we were without electricity for 8 hrs that day. Fortunately the tropical fish in a big tank we had then survived.
