Sorry to have been AWOL we had an intermittent broadband issue that seems to have gone away for now.

As a quick get it going question I have reverted to an old map, 1906/8 25inch OS. It is small, as I had to crop it a lot to keep too much information hidden.

Should be simple enough, but the question is what is off to the left of the image?

It's in a place called "East End" which is a little distance from Benenden village.  It's just off the minor "Benenden Road" down Green Lane.  the building is centred at:
  • Nat Grid:                    TQ 83498 35173
  • Nearest Post Code:   TN17 4AX
  • Co-ords (WGS84):     51°05'11"N,000°37'07"E or 51.08652,0.61867

Not Dover.  You need to be around 35 km westish from there. DTT was closer earlier.

Yes, the Post Office is the connection albeit this connection was many years ago.

Although this building is scheduled for demolition, there will still be a large part of the complex remaining and in current use.
