Farningham?


Sorry Diapason - I missed your post and carried on searching - it's an age thing  :D :D :D


I know exactly what you mean, John. I`m still struggling to come to terms with it.


Here`s one that Grandarog should know.

Is that a mausoleum, or charnel house in the background?

Thanks Cat.

You are both right with the view looking west from the bottom of Old Loose Hill along the former Loose Mill pond with All Saints church to the left. I've included a Streetview similar to show how much the mill pond has been reduced.


I guess it passes to grandarog as he was first in line

That looks like the river with Loose in the background. Might be wrong as have'nt been there since the 1970's for a Wedding at the Church.

Just to add a snippet to John's excellent piece; generations of schoolboys and lab staff regarded Whatman filters as the ONLY filter paper worth keeping in the lab.
