[grandarog]

You've done it again John Walker .It is the Triptych above the War Memorial Board in the Church.
Thought Diapason would have jumped in on this one..
Over to you.

[John Walker]

St John the Baptist, Tunstall  ?

[grandarog]

No Too far West of Lynsted now.

[Diapason]

Either Aylesford Priory or Rochester Cathedral?

[grandarog]

Not Lynsted , further west.     Diaperson You should know this one.

[Diapason]

Lynsted?

[grandarog]

West of Faversham

Bill Jones. Rather than be frustrated by the knowledge of members on the " G the P" thread, go to google- John W's suggestion is on there- & read about these places, you will end up with more knowledge of the place than most of the current inhabitants. And, like these almshouse, it really can be interesting history.

[John Walker]

A Faversham church?

[grandarog]

Not there.  ME postcode.

[John Walker]

Where did I spot this elaborate triptych.

Adisham area ?

[John Walker]

John/Grandarog. Most interesting, there must be a bit of history attached to those almshouses for, as you say, they must be the biggest in the country and cost a lot of money to build. Was there a local benefactor or was Faversham quite rich in those days?

Thanks John Walker. That was good one. I knew it and had been holding back from day one but as it didn't seem to be going anywhere, I jumped in.

I reckon you have taken an obscure and unusual view of a wing of the Faversham Alms Houses. Probably from Tanner Street.

Well done Grandrog.  Yes, the photo was taken from Tanner Street.  It's got to be one of the largest alms-houses in the country?


The yellow/red circle is where the photo was taken from.
