The railway was still active when I worked at Kemsley around 1968, 2 types of locos, one conventional fired and the other for use inside the mill was run on stored high pressure  superheated steam which they drew off from fixtures in the mill. Another boozy one for you

That didn't last long .Pete has it , :)


          Sittingbourne and Kemsley Light Railway.


I think its the best value for money along with the Bredgar &Wormshill set up.If you haven't been to either worth a day out after we are released from covid purgatory.


Your turn Pete.

It certainly is Newnham grandarog. Local knowledge is wonderful - how else would I have got the last GTP?

Over to you

That's the Church of St Peter and Paul at Newnham. You may remember I posted the Delaune Cycling Club memorial plaque on the outer wall of the church as a GTP .

I have spent a considerable time sitting in the queue for the lights, wondering what that building is - now I know.
At school in Sittingbourne throughout the sixties, Crown Quay Lane was always Cranky Lane to the locals.
Another church this time
Ditto!!! but you beat me to it, John.
