One of the residents of this house shocked sections of Victorian society with their views at the time.

Well done John Walker assuming you are correct (and the details you give suggest so), I am very impressed! For everyone else there are clues in JW's last entry :-)

Found it. I've been there a couple of times but didn't remember the main entrance. All my memories are inside and at the rear. I'll hold back for a while as I've had quite a few lately.

Thanks Lutonman, we visited here earlier in the year and did some of the woodland walks so it looked familiar at first sight. Going through my pictures I found this front door, can you tell where it is? Clues, visible on GSV and is in Kent!

Sorry for not keeping up, had a water leak at home to deal with in our new kitchen!
Yes Stewie its Chartwell, had a great day out last Tuesday, been there a number of time but well worth a return visit.
Over to you Stewie.
