Thanks Beachbum,  what a great place to retire to and only a couple of minutes walk into the High Street.


Next one.  Shouldn't be too hard to find.

Name and location of this little church.

You have it John Walker.

The lovely House behind was set up in 1959 as special home for Hythe residents, consisting of 24 bedrooms.

Seaviews and Hills are a thing  ;D

Found it.  Junction of Hillside and Dental Street.   Hythe has quite an elderly population and I wonder how they cope with all the hills.  That's where most of the 'posh' houses are.

How about Hythe?  That is hilly and has walls like that?

Not in Broadstairs or Thanet John Walker and DaveTheTrain.

A very nice property in the grounds (now a Residential Home) in a CT postcode

I thought it had the look of Broadstairs roads.  There are quite number of narrow roads with those kinds of wall in the area but I've not been able to find it so far.

I think that looks so like the wall in Whiteness Road, Broadstairs, on the way to Capn Digby.  It is much dilapidated.  I just cannot find that door.

I had only five mins between meetings at work to check on GSV, if someone finds it before good luck.

Thanks John Walker. Looking at Historic Images, there were houses opposite in 1960. These were flattened for a car park for the Telephone Exchange....

So next one: Coastal Hillside, part of a long wall

You have it Beachbum.

A lovely row of houses in amongst a very untidy area,  I guess it was a rather nice location before the planners had other ideas.

Over to you.

I think it is Margate, but I cannot quite put my finger on the exact location, but if it helps someone else.  Close to Hawley Sq, Trinity Sq.

Very close DTT  ;)
