I don't think I've seen this one, although it does ring a bell
. Would 'bell' be in the place name?

I'm away for a week, probably with bad internet connection. I'll join in if possible but at least you'll all know I'm not ignoring the thread.

I'm still having picture issues, so bear with me. This is either easy if you know it, or not...

Ah John, that explains the chapel term. It would be a private chapel as in many stately homes, almshouses, hospitals or Anglican schools. Not a parish church so therefore however big and impressive still a chapel.

You have it JohnFilmer. It is St Augustines Chapel. Originally part of St Augustines Psychiatric Hospital, Chartham. Over to you ...
51.246685235499505, 1.0304661256287007
St Augustine’s Hospital
was a
psychiatric hospital
in
Chartham
,
Kent
,
England
. It was founded as the second, or East, Kent County Asylum in 1872. In 1948 the hospital became part of the
National Health Service
and was renamed St Augustine's Hospital. The hospital gained notoriety in the 1970s when it was the subject of a committee of inquiry into malpractice and mismanagement. St Augustine's Hospital closed in 1993 and the site is now occupied by housing, although a few of the original hospital buildings remain.

I found it a while ago, but thought to hold back to let others have a go. But...
It’s Chartham, and that is one big Chapel!

The place this chapel was connected to had a bad reputation. That should help.

An 'A'Road, railway line and river running close together about 1/2 km away to the North. Station slightly to the NW.

Give it to Lyn John Walker , It is the Chapel at the RM depot. Close to the Church.
Sorry, Grandarog but it's not that one either. Head WNW.
It's not forces related.
