@Diapason, 2 Timothy is New Testament so would not appear on a Synagogue!

The Chatham Synagogue?


Bit of a wild guess, as the red brickwork is completely out of character with the Synagogue.

Thanks very much John Walker, hard to get for me from Medway not knowing too much about Canterbury.


Try this one, the picture is itself a clue if remember what was up to last year.

St Edmunds School? 51.2914315,1.0588582


Well done Lutonman.  St Edmunds is at the top of St Thomas's Hill going out of Canterbury, heading for Whitstable.  The now disused water tower is opposite.

That sounds like you knew it well as a youngster John.


Yes, MartinR,  It's an area I frequented in my early years when I stayed with my Nan not far from this location.   Also, returning from a day at the seaside there would be a good view over Canterbury with the cathedral standing proud.

Whitstable road ?
 Peter Cushing


Right road out of Canterbury and clue solving Grandarog.  Now to find the building.  Can be seen on GSV.
The cathedral used to be in view from here but trees have grown and blocked the view from the road.  I believe the cathedral can still be seen from within the grounds of this location.

Clue:  A large volume of water used to be close by.
