Guess the Place

[grandarog]

As I said I had a strong connection with St Marys Church Teynham .
Tina and Me were married there 60 years ago on 29th Sept 1962. Had our Diamond Wedding card from King Charles III and Camilla last year.

St Mary's Church in Teynham ?

We have two 'guessers' waiting in the wings so to help this along: During the course of our walk we found ourselves up a creek and without a paddle!

I haven't found it yet but I have to say - What a cracking photo Stewie. 

Thank you for the compliment Johnwalker, the photo was taken in early spring  and the lambs had just been put out with their mothers, when it is guessed I have an additional picture associated with the church to share! The Church is indeed north of the A2, our walk was a circular one out and back from a railway station.

North of the A2 ?

Too close to home, no guessing required, so pass on this.

(This in itself may be a clue to some of our regulars)

It does  look that way Stuartwaters but those are not Romney lambs, far from it. 

[stuartwaters]

Romney Marsh area somewhere?

Thanks Lutonman, being a resident of Chatham all my life I quickly knew that one. Which gives me the problem of something to respond with. Churches seem to be popular on GTP so Mrs Stewie and myself went for a walk last year and saw this fine example in a typical English landscape, but where were we?

The location is at the first bend of the road known as "Tramways", a pretty good confirmation of its past!

Hi Stewie, near enough, its the power station for the tram depot.

The full picture which I posted in the old Forum is now attached.

Found a little bit of history here https://webapps.kent.gov.uk/KCC.ExploringKentsPast.Web.Sites.Public/SingleResult.aspx?uid=MKE15281

[Stewie]

Is it the old tram depot in Luton village, Chatham?
