Guess the Place

[johnfilmer]

Duct elbow and transition round to rectangular now fixed - a little excess foam...
This was my wife's first Land Rover, a 90 not yet badged as Defender, with my son using the roof rack as a vantage.
But what is he watching, and therefore where?

[johnfilmer]

I drive past the access road when I cut across from Doddington to come down Highsted into Sittingbourne.


Will be back soon(ish) I am just about to fix the new cooker extract duct with expanding foam. Wish me luck...

I knew that one but liked it and  left for someone else.
 When I were a littleun Mary Taylor Jones (Nanny to Dr Mallinson) parent's lived in the Kingsdown vicarage her Dad was the Vicar ,often visited ,always remember there were Ostrich eggs on stands . The church is no longer in use .

Well spotted, John.


I was expecting Granderog to get that one but forgot that Kingsdown was in your locality.

[johnfilmer]

Loads of trees between the track and a church with a spire.


How about St Catherine’s Kingsdown?

[John Walker]

Just to be sure. Is it a church?

[Diapason]

CAT, that one took a great deal of searching!




Here`s the next one which I took a few years ago, specifically for GTP. Somewhat disguised but will be quite recognisable for many members.

I don’t know about the mislabelled painting grandarog, but my pic is definitely of Olantigh (Towers) north of Wye as identified by Diapason.


Well done and over to you Diapason

[grandarog]

Bit strange this one .
Internet attributes the Painting as being Raynham Hall ,Norfolk.
Looking further it is obviously mis-labelled.

[Diapason]

Olantigh House, near Wye.

[CAT]

The house in my pic, which is from the early nineteenth century, suffered a catastrophic fire in the early twentieth century and was largely reconstructed from the ruins, but on a smaller scale using the colonnade and pediment of the earlier façade.

Not Chevening Pete and kind of central east(ish) Kent. Not too far from a 'failed' medieval market town.

[pete.mason]

Chevening?

[John Walker]

East Kent ?  (I'll be kicking myself if it is )

[CAT]

Many thanks shoot999.


I was unaware of the Hamilton link, so thanks for that.


Next one is clearly a good sized country house, still standing, but were?
