12th century Anglican church and a nature reserve are not far away.   Railway line aprox 800 mtrs behind this pub.

I had to smile at " another"pub. It reminded me of early days as a sales engineer in a new territory. A new large town, i stooped to ask a lady where x was( way before satnav) & she said," drive along here to the George & Dragon on the fight, turn down there & you'll see the Kings Arms on the left, turn down the road just past it & at the bottom is the Royal Oak & it's the next door to that"!  It wasn't slurred speech either.


That's funny but quite true.  This pub is none of those though   :D :D :D   On GSV

Thanks JohnFilmer.  It was a quick guess but the wide street made me think of West Malling.


Next one ...


What and where is this pub?

I have driven past this pub a few times, just took a while to remember where - helped by Mr Google, of course.
The next is a well known, but older, view of a High Street still recognisable today. Could be easy.

As ever - where?
