I saw this building a long time ago when we took grandchildren to the place.

Bridge Country Club: When I was at Canterbury College in the 70's, it had a Grab a Grannies Night.
I went just the once, a scary experience indeed.............


Mess with the Canterbury Grannies at your peril  ;D ;D ;D  !

I think it was built purely as a home not for the actual use of hop drying.


That's probably why it didn't come up in my searches for converted oasts. :)

Thanks Grandarog


I've been to Chartwell but the weather was cold and windy.  Hope to make a return visit in better weather.


Interesting to note that the oast was built in 1985.  I didn't think oasts were still being built then.


Next one up soon ...
