Guess the Place

[KeithG]

Where in Strood and what cargo?

[shoot999]

Masts up so I'm guessing Strood. Offloading/loading. But what?

[KeithG]

It is on the Medway shoot999

[shoot999]

Is that on the Medway?

[KeithG]

Invicta Alec..... Not a Thames Barge or Whitstable.


John Walker...... and not re-rigging at Gravesend.


Although not a very large vessel they did sail very long distances. (clue)

[John Walker]

Re-rigging?
Gravesend?

[Invicta Alec]

Looks like Whitstable harbour to me?


Is the vessel a Thames sailing barge? Used extensively because of their flat bottoms making them ideal for river freight.


Alec.

[KeithG]

Next Guess is:


What is happening here and where?

[KeithG]

Thanks John Walker....


I'll be back..

[John Walker]

You have it KeithG


I was going to add the post code district TN23 but it's a very small area and I think would have taken 'guessers' straight to it.


Great Chart was on the main A28 route but is now quite sleepy since the bypass was built.  The church looks quite large - perhaps a future visit.


Over to you

[KeithG]

Great Chart.... St Mary's is the church?

[John Walker]

Not there Keith.  You need to head to the Ashford area.

[KeithG]

Is it around 73, High St  Bridge ?

[John Walker]

Continue past the church and within a couple of kilometers you will be in a busy town.

[John Walker]

Heading roughly south east behind the camera position would eventually take you on to the bypass and later through a village with a horse on a roof.
