Good question.  It's called a river, but is a tidal arm of the sea.

Amazed you didn't get that one Keith. Like many others The Brittania ,Three Hats , and White Hart,were the lunchtime refreshment places for many of us that worked in Milton during the 70,80,s. Also the Bookies that was behind the Court house. ;)

The Brit became a Kebab house about 30 years ago.  I preferred the White Hart or the Three Hats.  I lived just down the hill on the high street for about 10 years up to 1996.

The Old Court House in Milton, Sittingbourne.


I drew it in 1989, while waiting for the train home, after seeing my brother in a Milton hospital.


I cant do photo`s, so if I am right, I will let someone else, put up the next one.




I certainly missed that one!

The Old Courthouse was almost opposite "The Britannia" pub as it was called in the 1970`s and i almost used  it at every weekday lunchtime for around
8 to 10yrs going from my workplace on the Trinity Trading Estate.

Near water.  Not the Marquis of Granby.

Well done Castle261, it is indeed the Court Hall, Milton Regis.  The original was taken in 1956.
On behalf of Castle261, then here is the next starter.
