The post closest to the camera appear to be rounded and with a 'drum' on top. Is it a covered winding mechanism, possibly for raising water or even a sluice gate?

Sorry John, nothing to do with blacksmiths.

Far eastern part of the Medway region.

DaveTheTrain - yes it is (or was) a well, but that's not a tank or a lever!

Is it a well?  That looks like a rivetted tank over the pump lever.  No idea where is it, however.

I believe some parts of the farmhouse go back to the 14th century.

A bit of this structure still exists, but you would probably pass by these days without noticing it...

Yes... You have that Smiffy.


Contains many original features after renovation.
The Capstone Farm Country Park is nearby.


Over to you...
