Next clue: Find a hill like a head near some counted trees.

Yes, that's the "end of some railways", now you need to find the connection.  Further clue at midday if no-one has got it by then.

No, and as a first clue that is end as in finish, not terminus.

If you go up this road you'll find a connection to Manhattan and the end of some railways.

Harrietsham Almshouses, but I've not yet found the "fishy" connection.
Edit:Got it!  "Mark Quested (d. 1642), Citizen and Fishmonger, bequeathed his estate to the Fishmongers' Company for various charitable uses, including the building of 12 almshouses."
