That’s the place Pete. We did a job in a house almost next to the tower. I expected guys dressed in black suits and shades to keep flashing a bright light in my eyes 8)


Over to you...

A water tower certainly, but many miles west of Beltinge.


It is visible from a few angles on GSV, not just the one that I chose.

Trying to be different, where is this? It looks like something from an "aliens have landed" film.

Only last Friday I was using GSV to roam around Farningham looking for the pub where my wife and her oldest friend went to a folk club in the early/mid 70s. They couldn’t be sure, but I remembered the shop from my views of the Chequers opposite. So all down to luck and what’s left of the short term memory  :D


Back soon, presently sitting in garden using iPad, with which I have no idea how to post photos, so I’ll be off to the laptop, I pretend to know how to use Windows.
