Guess the Place

[smiler]

   Thats fine Keith G I was to be fair thinking of the woodyard but of Scotts yard in Medway St between the flour mills and Russells garage. Remember a big fire there in the 60s ?

[Smiffy]

KeithG, sorry if I caused you offence, I was not implying at all that you were actually being cruel or unfair. I was only joking - hence the smiley!
 
I don't usually join in with Guess the Place so I'll have to have a rummage to see what I can find. Watch this space...

[KeithG]

smiffy... you are correct , but i am not being cruel at all as it is a game?


Look at smilers question: "Is it between Chatham High Street and Medway Street could that be Scotts wood Yard or the flour mill in front"


The picture i put up is not between High Street and Medway Street and that particular part of Scotts is where the boats unloaded the timber at the wharf next door to Hookers mill and not behind it?


I have a picture of an invoice which says Wharves - High Street and Medway Street and my picture was of the High Street branch.


I have not hidden anything and have been truthful but nobody found the building wall which still exists?


Perhaps you should cast your mind back quite a few years when a Guess the Place picture was of a clock tower with the only one hand on the Two....so everyone was looking for a one handed clock face but in fact it was Ten Past two ....nobody complained just fun!


I used to frequent this place for my timber in the late `60`s early `70`s as i was a qualified  Joiner / Shopfitter


Anyway sorry to those who think it was unfair but i did answer properly all questions asked.


Over to You smiffy

[Smiffy]

KeithG, I think you're being very cruel here...
 
I know exactly where this is - smiler actually got it, it's Scott's timber yard. The entrance depicted is in (or was in) Chatham high street. The main entrance was around the corner in Railway street. This is one of a set of pictures taken in 1982, probably just prior to demolition. The building on the right has I think, always been a building society.

[KeithG]

smiler....No, the building that the wall belongs to and is still there was not a Pub but of course they were all around.

[smiler]

Was the building thats still there once a pub

[KeithG]

shoot999...I do follow members closely what areas they deal with and i know that you know the answer....


The size and amount of the gratings are still there but not the old fashioned iron ones.


I am getting exited as well as you all are as i just don`t know who is going to get it?


I can`t think of anymore clues without giving it away what and where it was.


The exact location is needed.

[shoot999]

smiler......not between High Street and Medway Street


castle261......not rear entrance of St Bart`s, but that is the near hospital...Not a Turkish Bath establishment




I am hiding nothing just that you are all so HOT i am answering exactly how it is.




The actual buildings wall on the right with the drainpipes that still exist are staring you all in the face!....


I know, this was my patch from the 50s to the 70s and I recognise the grating arrangement.  I'll be kicking myself when its revealed.

[castle261]

Turkish Bath establishment.

[smiler]

   Is it between Chatham High St and Medway St could that be Scotts wood yard or the flour mill in front

[KeithG]

There was a more elegant main entrance around the corner...

[KeithG]

This building was open to the Public but really only a certain type of person would use it!


This is the rear entrance somewhere on the High Street

[KeithG]

castle261.....not Fullagers Yard and not Globe Lane.


You are very close?

[castle261]

Fullager`s Yard, between Woolworth & 50 Shilling Tailors in Chatham - An Invicta Cinema later.


Second guess --- Globe Lane / High Street.
