Guess the Place

[Diapason]

At some time in the 19th century, this building was three cottages, one an alehouse, all owned owned by the vicar of Bobbing, the Rev. Simpson. There is a vast cellar beneath this building.
Later, the Co-op converted it to a grocery store which eventually became a printing works followed by Colwin`s Motorcycles.

Ah at last .Think it is Colwins Motor Bike shop ,Corner of Milton Road /Mill Way.

[John Walker]

Are the two wooden pillars still visible?

[grandarog]

Bridge Road Milton ,which disappeared years ago ?

[Diapason]

Neither Chalkwell Road nor Cross Lane but definitely Milton Regis and north of the railway and the A2.

[Lutonman]

Chalkwell road Sittingbourne?

[John Walker]

Cross Lane, Milton ?

[Diapason]

Not Newington  -  Come back to the Sittingbourne area and nearer the railway line.
I can see the resemblance with the derelict Newington shop, which I hadn`t noticed before.
Don`t take too much notice of the connection with Bobbing church as the connection is with a former Vicar not the building and not generally known.
granderog is the nearest so far but it`s not in Milton High street.

Time for a clue!
Originally this building had a connection with the church of St. Bartholomew, Bobbing.

Derelict shop - 58 High Street, Newington ?   Can't find a connection with the church though.

You are nearly there, John and in the correct area. Only about 5 minutes ride by `bike`.

[John Walker]

Now the MiniMart General Store, Nr Chalkwell, Sittingbourne ?

[Diapason]

Wrong end of the town, granderog.
