Guess the Place

[Diapason]

Probably a very easy one, especially for those with a little local knowledge.

Another one of my childhood playgrounds I failed to recognise 60 odd years later. 

That must have been a great adventure playground

Thanks diapason.  Your orchard clue really helped there.  I visited the church on an open-gardens day many years ago.  I don't think the church was open but I seem to remember an orchard of mature apple trees.


Next one ...

Correct Royal Mail Postcode for the Church is ME 13 OSG. Provender lane Codes are all  ME13 OS*.

 St Mary's Church, Provender Lane, Norton, Faversham, ME13 0SG

• Grid: TQ 9677 6110
• WGS84: 51°18'54"N, 000°49'20"E

There's something a little funny about the post codes.  Google gives the address as above, but Streetmap gives the "nearest postcode" as ME9 9JU.  If using a mobile phone to navigate, beware.

Over to you, John.

St Mary's Church, Norton ?

Your reply was not unexpected, granderog as you successfully guessed a post from this place that I made on the previous forum.


It`s a very difficult place to find  -  it took me three attempts on my first visit there a few years ago.


Clue time: The building is virtually in an orchard.
