Would the area that has been filled in and built upon have been a mill pond?
Much bigger and deeper than a mill pond.

Well, I have found it at last, clues essential!

However, I have Man Flu, so will let someone else carry on while I go back to groaning on the sofa :-\

A road that heads toward this warehouse is named after what was here previously.

We've discussed an area very close to this location before.

Not a river but there is a named stream nearby.  I'm never sure of exactly where the Greensand Ridge border actually is.  The maps I've found are not very helpful.  However it is near the Greensand Way.

Obviously on a fair gradient, so options include the Greensand Ridge or a drop down to a waterway such as the Stour, where many a mill was to be found, needing storage?

Next one ...

Where is this warehouse?  It still exists but the reason it was built for has now gone.

No problem MartinR - bad description by me.  It was the vault under the walkway that made me think of Canterbury Cathedral.  Interesting fact about the vault acting as a sound system.
