Chapel Down Vineyard Small Hythe Road Tenterden? Shipbuilding clue Smallhythe?


Spot on Shoot999.  Hard to imagine shipbuilding went on there when you drive through the silted up area now.  Chapel Down Vineyard is just up the road from here.


Over to you ...

is it the Elham Valley Vineyard?


Not that one Grandarog.  Active railway line about 1km away and a town about 2km away.  Ships used to be built near here.

There is a clue...


Near an A road, a railway, a river?


That wasn't the clue.  the clue is in the photo.     However. A small tributary of a named river and a railway line are about 1km away.  On a 'B' road.

Always difficult to know how many clues to leave.  Too few and the thread stalls.  When I see 'an A road, a railway, a river', I usually head for the Wateringbury area or Cuxton.

Great clues JohnFilmer.  Church of St Peter and St Paul, Teston.  I'm guessing the ancient structure is the nearby bridge over the Medway?
