Saxon Shore way, Shakespeare Cliff


Not there either Pete.


Further clue.  The track is part of a major Kent walking trail.

Western Heights?


Not there Pete.  The route shown in my photo can be followed on GSV.

Are they walkways to a place of interest? NT property or similar?


No,  the track is part of a route.  This part of the route is quite unusual and I found it by accident.  If you were to climb the bank at the side of the track you would have a good viewpoint across the area.


The view on this photo can be seen on GSV.

There's another smaller and less substantial bridge serving a similar purpose behind the camera position.  Not industrial.

shoot999. Sad that Jezreels went but inevitable I suppose as the faith seemed to die out. Did they build something worthwhile in its, & the shops, place? I can still hear the conductor/ conductress calling out," Jezreels", on the M&D bus as it swung round the corner. Probably carried on well into the 60's even though the building was gone- a bit like " Seaplane works", on the Esplanade route.   Sorry, Moderator but "asides" seem to be more fitting as just that, rather than starting a new thread?

Quote from shoot999 :-This building is still there as far as I know. At least on GSV in 2019! 


The one I reffered to was Demolished some time ago. :)


Ah yes, thats the site of the old Jezreel towers which was demolished in the 60s. The Canterbury Street side of the site in your view was where the Jezreelites had their row of shops. Looked a bit tatty in the end with many of the shops boarded up. No wonder they knocked them down. Incidentally, in the background of your GSV  is the other more well known Jubilee Clips building that was situated on Watling Street.

The bridge is possibly Victorian.
