Berkley Crescent.


You have it John.  Seems a bit out of place in today's Gravesend.  Perhaps Gravesend was a much grander place in days gone by.  Perhaps a case of another town being wrecked by planners, or did it suffer badly in the war?


I'll leave the co-ordinates to MartinR as he is much better at it than me.  :)


Over to you ...

Gravesend?


Yep!   :D   Gravesend it is.   Shouldn't be too difficult now.

Would Maidstone be any closer to the GTP than Tunbridge Wells?


Further north of T/Wells.  This architecture seems slightly out of place (at least to my way of thinking)

Wild guess, Tunbridge Wells?


Not Pantiles or Tunbridge Wells Beachbum, although I can see why you might think it is.


You need to head in a northerly direction ...

We've had GTPs in this area before.

The image is from GSV - the wide angle lens has made some of the columns look a different size.  I am fairly certain they are all the same size.


There's another set opposite these.

Thanks CAT,  I've visited Goodenstone House a few times and never knew the Jane Austin connection.  Always something new to learn on GTP.


Next one.


Where is this row of columns?
