Yes John...it is Upnor..."Pier"


There were a lot of these designed piers along the Medway Towns stretch of the river.


Where this could of been catchy is that the view is similar from a similar pier in Strood across to Gas House Point, The Gas holder was there then but not now?


In Upnor of course the similar view is across to St. Mary`s Island.


Over to you...

That's the one KeithG. I thought it might have lasted a bit longer, but how wrong I was. Well done and over to you.

It's what I enjoy about the KHF, the challenge, discovery and the knowledge of others.

Many thanks John Walker

Here is my next, but where would you find this former tranquil pub? Still a rural location, but maybe not so tranquil.
