My family have lived for over 30 years just north of this site; not two minutes walk away further up Otterham Quay Lane.  I thought I recognised the topography and knew about the golf course as my brother plays there, plus I spent three years in the late 60s on this very patch courting;  but then immediately ruled it out as too obvious a coincidence and convinced myself it was north of the river towards the west.  ;D      For being so daft and not trusting my instincts I feel I have to rule myself out of this one


If no one else wants to claim it, maybe you should go again?

Not much left to say only that it is Medway Towns
And that this very picture is on a dead pubs website :)
Sorry, a bit busy preparing to renew kitchen, so no time to play "properly"  :(

CAT...the building to the left and not right is a pub with a sign board across it`s eaves. Later became a grocer`s and was eventually destroyed by a fire and demolished.


John....Think the garden is more to the right?


There used to be a pub opposite side of the road near which there used to be an old cement works.
