Thank you Diapason. My first thought was by the Neptune Car Park in Herne Bay.
Next one folks.
Still exists. Has industrial history but now has a different use. Can be seen on GSV.

Well done John. I was confused by the port-hand buoy, it's unlit and therefore less obvious on the charts.

Well done Diapason. The caption says "Elmley Ferry House; it was demolished about 1960". Now it should be clear the the water was the River Swale, which is not really a river.

Google omits the "river", but it's always been called one. The building has been demolished, but used to be residential.

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