OK castle261, we will leave somebody else to guess the place.

The writing is small because this site displays the image as a "thumbnail" (smaller) version of the picture.
You see a bigger picture if you click on the thumbnail.
And, if click on the file name to the right of the paperclip symbol, the picture is downloaded onto your computer so you can view it, and zoom it even bigger, with your favourite image viewer.
I think you can do that with any images on the site to appreciate them more, not just the "guess the place" pictures.

castle261, you get the extra points for the book. If you have a picture, and want to name the place, then post your picture to have a turn, I am no IT expert, but can try and talk you through. A couple of tips to get you started:-

Indeed you were, before I had finished setting it up.  ;)
Youthful enthusiasm without the youth. I did wonder why nobody else signed up for a while after me.


Anyway, back to the quiz; The graveyard is in North Kent.

Only onto the step under the roof, not moved far. The Woodcoombe club in Church Road, Murston.

I recall old railway tracks are still visible in the road along the north wall of the club.

Found it on Google - those two dog statues have moved to a new position  :D

I won't put in my guess as I'm away until Friday and it will hold things up.

Was once ,but now very near large commercial and industrial area. On the old forum it would have been found straight away but we dont have so many members yet.
