Not Allington, JW.

Stay in the general area of the Medway Valley.

Small, easily overlooked 13th Century castle, with Tudor additions, and parish church not far away.

Not Yalding either…

The building is not isolated, lots of newer ones surround it.

I did wonder about Igtham Mote, but I can't find the view on GSV or the NT.

Sorry being AWOL for so long, first our younger son and his wife took up late morning for a visit. I then managed to split some logs before our eldest turned up bearing gifts for his mother's birthday that he had missed as he was visiting Norway. That was the rest of the afternoon gone...

Right, where is this impressive display of flues?

There are many myths and rumours about the Knights Templar, I would love to know more.

Just up the lane from me is Solomons Temple, possibly with an ancient connection to the Knights. The nearest church is at Wychling, dedicated to St Margaret of Antioch, apparently a common Templar dedication.

I live in Solomon’s Cottages, hence my interest.

Back in the morning with the next one.
