Thanks John Walker. I have never been to the big cat sanctuary. I had tickets once, but gave them to my daughter and her friend. I believe access is limited.


Anyway, thanks for the other clues that helped me drill down to Headcorn Baptist Church.


Here is the next one, my own photo from last year

The lion and tiger clues are too cryptic or subtle for me unless they are referencing airplanes like Tiger Moths.


Well done Local Hiker - you've got it so over to you.


The clues related to The Big Cat Sanctuary and Headcorn Aerodrome, both around a kilometer away from the chapel.

Railway station nearby.  On a long straight section of track.
Just heard a plane taking off.

Mid Kent.  I'm sure I heard a tiger roar in the distance or possibly a lion?

My younger son lives a couple of hundred yards along the road from this, and we walk past it to get to the pub :D 


So I’ll hold fire as well.

You have done it again, a well known place in my family. I will pass on this one.

Thanks, Beachbum,  I thought it might be to do with the tunnels but didn't recall seeing that part when I did the tour a couple of years back.  Further searches and your clues narrowed it down.  An interesting one.




Next one ...  shouldn't be difficult.

Spot on JW.
This was accessed via a ramp from the Hospital.Additionaly, you could be taken into any of the Public ARP entrances and conveyed underground to this Theatre.
Over to you......

Below the old Ramsgate General Hospital?  Emergency operating theatre perhaps?

The Ramsgate Air Raid tunnels ?  Possibly latrines or a medical area.
