Sorry John, I should have been clearer.  Which church in Folkstone?   From the look of that tower I'd expect a decent ring of bells.  In Folkstone there are:
  • Ss Mary & Eanswythe (8 bells)
  • Holy Trinity (8 bells)
  • Radnor Park (URC) (Clock bell & 4 quarter hour bells)
  • St Saviour (3 bells)
Single bells:
  • Emmanuel
  • Our Lady, Help of Christians (RC)
  • St Augustine
  • St George
  • St John the Baptist
  • St Michael & All Angels
  • St Peter
  • Tontine St. (URC)

Folkestone, Kent,
This church is near a railway line and a park.  It's a very large building when viewed from above.

Which Folkstone?  I looked at Ss Mary & Eanswythe and rejected that, see http://kent.lovesguide.com/tower.php?id=77

Thanks JohnFilmer


I went too far east to start with and ended up in Thanet, but then remembered passing a couple of big homes in Herne Bay many years ago.  I knew nothing of them until searching for this GTP - interesting as I never think of Herne Bay as having such large properties.


Next one - should be an easy one ...

Right type of establishment, but it was far to the east.
