Guess the Place

[Beachbum]

Totally lost with this one?

Charing area?

[John Walker]

There are at least three other similar buildings in Kent.

The building's current use is a far cry from its original use.

Not Dover - more mid-Kent

Aerial view of a lump of Dover?

[John Walker]

Clue: Lots of history in this area.

Got it - I think.  Main gate into Sissinghurst?

[grandarog]

Getting closer ,keep heading South'ish.

[John Walker]

Boughton Monchelsea Place has similar archways but I can't locate the one in your photo. 

[grandarog]

You are heading in the right direction keep going South'ish.

Most of my data was on a 5-disk RAID5 set.  I'd had a hot spare for ages, but started the conversion to RAID6 to improve reliability (irony)!  During the first critical phase the new disk went out, and the superblock was unrecoverable.   I reconfigured and restored 90% of the data, but the filesystem where I keep the virtual machines isn't backed up - I back up the VMs themselves.  The latest VM I was working on didn't yet have a backup system (that was what I was working on) when the crash occurred.  At least I know that my backup system (with the exception of the latest VM) works, there's no test like real life!

Thanks for the co-ordinates MartinR.  Disc failure - the stuff of nightmares.  I hope it doesn't take too long to get back to normal workings.
