It’s the corner of Station Road and St Faiths Street.


I have been in the flat above next door, and they are as “interesting “ inside as out. A real challenge to find somewhere to put a boiler.


You have it JohnFilmer.  16 St Faith's Street, Maidstone.   Here's some details  https://britishlistedbuildings.co.uk/101336189-16-st-faiths-street-maidstone-high-street-ward


Thanks for the coordinates MartinR.

Over to you.

In a built-up area.  Easily seen in GSV.

Thanks Shoot999.   A very interesting one and great find.  I didn't know the place existed but it looks quite a place.

Well worth a look on Google Street View 3D.  Quite fascinating.  All set up for re-enacting street riots and many other situations.




Next one - Where is this listed building?  (Street name removed)

You have it John. I stumbled across it when looking for other GTP within in the area and wondered why there was a train carriage and underground train in the middle of what looked like a college or something. Then  noticed most of the buildings only had the front wall.

Metropolitan Police Training Centre?  I can't find the exact location as per your photo, although there are plenty of similar blue doors.


Edit. Just found it. Was in shadow so the red sign doesn't show.

Not that John. But you are not to far away now. The pic shows just a small part of a wider complex that's best viewed in GE 3D
