I'm thinking street light timer. You need to head east. It's in full view and can be seen on GSV

I know I've seen something like this before.  I think it's either a controller for street lighting, or else for traction currents for trams.  As to where, will the Historic Dockyard be in the right vicinity?

I believe so MartinR.  It has 400v and 240v (3 phase and single phase ?) on the label but no other detail that I could make out..

Is that a time switch attached to the main box?

Thank you MartinR.  That church does look quite special.

That's the one.  If you get a chance it is well worth a visit, the plasterwork is stupendous.

Parish Church of King Charles the Martyr, London Road Tunbridge Wells.?  I thought possibly Salomons  but found this while searching the area.  It has some similarities with Wrens church in the City of London.  Reading about it I found that it was by same architect!

Yes.  I was in it about 3 years ago.

Here's one that you'll either know instantly, or else will take forever.
