Guess the Place

[Diapason]

The Medway Queen Pub, Chatham ?


I`m sure I`ve passed it many times but have never been certain if it`s Chatham, Rochester or ?

[John Walker]

Rochester ?

[pete.mason]

Right, another boozy one, dead pub now, What was it's name and what was unusual about it's sign

Spot on Pete.
It is now the perimiter boundary between the public footpath and Tesco garage.

This is not my video, but it clarifies what and where.  https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCq0Xjs0YBa9kkNJX64nFcMQ

Ravelin wall Sheerness

[Local Hiker]

Yes

[shoot999]

Sheerness area?

[Local Hiker]

It is a bit dry on guesses. It was part of quite significant dockyard defences.

i think technically they are Batteries at Dungeness not Forts.

Well grandarog, I am aware of most places mentioned on KHF; I have visited many, and I often have a little personal anecdote to add.
I have never heard of Dungeness Fort, and I have been to Dungeness many times.


So I am afraid that you are way out, as you have surmised. It is associated with the North Kent coast as I suggested earlier.

[grandarog]

thats blown my guess out of the water .I was thinking Dungeness Fort.

[Local Hiker]

Pete, New Tavern Fort is quite an interesting area.
I visited it a few years ago, although I was mainly in the area to explore the Thames Medway Canal basin nearby.


It is not there, but you are on the right coastline.

Thank you Diapason. I have not been KHFing much lately, and here I am back and posting in Guess the place.


With lock-down, my options to play GTP with my own images is limited, but here is one from 4ish years ago.
