Well !! I thought it would last  longer than that  -  I think I used the same photo on the `old` forum GTP.


Over to you, John.

I'm sure it's
Badlesmere, St. Leonard's Church.  I came across reference to a multi tier pulpit when searching for a previous GTP.

Phew!
That took some finding. I recognised it immediately as I had walked past that place a few times, but just could not remember where..
I hope this one won`t cause too much trouble.

Where is this two tier pulpit?

It is indeed Maidstone Boys Grammar School, Barton Rd . Built IIRC 1929  in spite of it's looks.

I`ve still no idea what this place is, but have found it on Google Earth (after hours of searching) at the junction of St. Phillips Avenue and Barton Road, Maidstone.


Edit.  Have just discovered that it`s Maidstone Boys Grammar School.

Pete.  I has occurred to me, that your question, maybe directed more to Diapason, than me ?

I seem to recall seeing this building somewhere in Maidstone  -  just off the Sutton or Hastings Road  -  possibly the main entrance to a school or college?

That's the one Pete.  I hope to visit this church, once we're all set free again.
