Guess the Place

[DaveTheTrain]

Can I adjust my answer, looking at old maps, there is a pumping station on tother side of the London Road, which on old maps is shown as Pump Lane, but is now Guardian Court.  Here lies the Rainham Mark WSW.   So I think it may have been Platters Farm.

[DaveTheTrain]

I am going to guess and say its Pump Lane, Rainham.  I would have to guess and say it is by the old Bus Garage.

Not Meresborough, but you're close. Go a little bit further west. CAT, you're pretty much there re use, as it's for raising water.

Smiffy did you know the old Miersborough Lane is now Meresborough Lane?

water supply for steam engines / traction engines?

[CAT]

The post closest to the camera appear to be rounded and with a 'drum' on top. Is it a covered winding mechanism, possibly for raising water or even a sluice gate?

Meresborough area?

Sorry John, nothing to do with blacksmiths.

Far eastern part of the Medway region.

[John Walker]

Blacksmiths/farriers and bellows ?

Strand boating pool,sorry I'm a bit confused?

[Smiffy]

DaveTheTrain - yes it is (or was) a well, but that's not a tank or a lever!

[DaveTheTrain]

Is it a well?  That looks like a rivetted tank over the pump lever.  No idea where is it, however.

[Smiffy]

ME postcode.

CAT- you're very warm.

Is the structure light industrial (saw pit cover, donkey wheel etc.)?
