Guess the Place

[John Walker]

Looking past the end of Hampton Pier, Herne Bay ?

[MartinR]

Whitstable, looking towards the Kentish Flats windfarm?

[Diapason]

Where is this?

[MartinR]

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.

[Diapason]

The (now demolished) building at Elmley Ferry?

[MartinR]

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

[KeithG]

What is the building used for now..... Pub... Domestic dwelling... Farm building?

[John Walker]

Is it called a river on Google maps?  Found plenty of creeks 

[MartinR]

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

[KeithG]

Is the water a river or 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.

[MartinR]

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.
