Well done KeithG - Wye Road, Boughton Lees.    Looks nicer in the photo without the front gardens being used as parking bays. Wiki says that cricket has been played on the green for over 200 years!     Not the easiest of GTP's.


Over to you

Just to the north of Ashford? Say within a few kilometers?


That looks about right Shoot999.

A green is close by.

Thank you Grandrog and KeithG


Next one ...   Will probably need clues unless someone recognises it.


These building still exist although the front gardens are mainly used for parking now.  Most of it can be seen on GSV. (There is a small section of this road on GSV missing)

Well Done John Walker.
Azouma certainly was and I presume still is an excellent place to try Lebanese Cuisine. I took some American cousins there a couple of years ago ,Very good service and value. They are fans of Lebanese  food and reckoned it was far better than they had ever had in the States.
               Over to you for the next one. :)

Very well done John Walker.....


I did go to Sittingbourne then onto Canterbury thinking it looked posh!..... Made me really hungry looking at all the meals, but although i saw this place did not find proper pictures of the decor...... I think Google was just trying to sell me a meal 8)

I searched all over Kent to find this! - I wasn't sure exactly what sort of restaurant it was.  And then I found it less than 10 walk from where I live  :-[  .  Always smells great as I walk past but my wife won't chance 'spicy' foods so I've never actually been in.


Azouma in Church street St Pauls. Canterbury - almost opposite where my primary school was - St Pauls and the church where I was confirmed.

Thanks , Sorry for the delay. When I visited St James years ago it was all lock,chocked and tiebarred.No signs to obtain access so had to make do with a look round the graves.
Anyway try this one . The name of the establishment will suffice.
