Well done, Pete.


Yes it was Key Street Methodist Chapel. Although it was fairly small, it had a balcony and a basement, also a small pipe organ. My great uncle was the organist and also was the engineer in charge of the waterworks situated on the summit of Keycol Hill (now long gone), but I believe the pumps are still there.


Over to you!

looking on old OS maps there is a church shown  on S side of the A2 and a bit east and opposite of the Key Pub on the crossroads. Guessing a non conformist chapel by the look of the drawing  on your photo

You are nearly there, Pete. Carry on down the hill, from the (now demolished) Keycol hospital which was at the summit of Keycol Hill.

Stay with Key Street.

Back down the A2 about 10/12 miles. It`s so close to the A2 and virtually part of it. Probably needs a bit of local knowledge of a building that was demolished quite a few years ago. I`ll post a photo of it when it`s `guessed`.

You`re about 35 miles adrift, Pete.
