Thanks John Walker, I was lost before that final clue.

Next one has a different building now, but the same to the side........

Well done Beachbum.  (And JohnFilmer for finding it but holding back)

The demolished special school opposite was The School for Deaf Children.

Thanks for the Clue John Walker, it's Emmanuel Church, Victoria Road, Margate. Zion Cemetery next to it.

A special school nearby was closed and demolished in recent years.  (That should help)

Park to the east, Water to the west. Large overgrown graveyard is adjacent.

Is this Broadstairs, John?

Not Broadstairs DTT but in the right general area of the county.

Sorry MartinR - I only half answered your question.  Yes, it was a church. Pentecostal Evangelical Christian Church.

Head for the eastern side of the county.

But it was a church?  And was it Catholic?

A church somewhere in Kent.  Possibly Catholic.  Is it still in use as a church?
