Not as far as Ashford, and on a bigger hill than you find in the town.

I have gone back to a map GTP again. Its cropped back to avoid easy connections with named places nearby, but I thought a lost Race Course worthy of the game.
Mid Kent. Modern field shape is almost the same.

Map is from nls, 25inch OS, 1896/7
