Close enough for me Beachbum, the photo was taken in No. 1 smithy in the Historic dockyard. The grandchildren enjoyed the exhibition as did  I, in fact I was thinking of making a return visit with Mrs Stewie so that we could read all of the information there!

over to you Beachbum / MartinR.

Yes Martin R, Chatham it is. though I suppose the river doesn't actually flow through it more around it!

Not Maidstone Beachbum but the town it’s in does have a large river passing through it. 🤓

The exhibit is part of a 'temporary' collection available to view here in 2023.

I'm fairly certain I know this location so will hold back for the moment.

Thanks Beachbum, I only took this one on as I have another picture to play. I took this picture again on an outing with the grandchildren so where was I when I took this?

It is the Ramsgate Water Works at Southwood. Now converted to Residential Units.

So thanks to John Walker for holding back, Stewie has it

Found it.  What an amazing structure.  I'll hold back for now.  Others could have some fun finding it.
