Grandarog - you have it.  (I was running out of clues)

The clues:


Bones:  The vast collection of ancient skulls etc in the nearby St Leonards Church.
Water:  The Royal Military Canal and the sea.
Railway Terminus:  Romney, Hythe and Dymchurch Railway Station
Brewery:  Mackesons


Over to you ......

Using the iPad I can only get an obtuse view, but is it Lloyd’s Bank Hythe?

Margate?


Not Margate Lutonman.  It did have a brewery but not a terminus station.


The bones is a good clue to the town.

A well-known alcoholic beverage was made in this town.  It was later brewed by a large company.  The brewery has since been demolished.  The building that was the office for this brewery is in the same street as my door photo.

Grandarog and Beachbum.  Good thinking both, but not the right locations.


Further clue.  There is a railway terminus here.
