You have it.  It's a bit out of the way and not on GSC so felt clues would be needed.

Stunning!  No price mentioned though I see.  Now my mother's maiden name was Boyes (just a variant spelling, both come from " de Bois") - do you think I could convince them that it is a family property that needs returning?

East of mid Kent (roughly)

Thanks Grandarog


Once again the clues really helped.  The White Horse pub is next door.  We used to go there in the 70s - excellent meals.  Next time I hire a car, I'll have to pop back out.


Next one ....


Clue:  Not as remote as it might appear.


Clue:  Can't be seen on GSV so clues and questions are probably needed.

Well done John Walker. That card view was from the 1930's.


Your turn again! :)
