Would late March (say 25 or 27 according to different sources) be a time for a quick trip to North France?

Not too difficult, and not specific to the town, though it greatly impacted the town of Hythe. Think of what's going on nationally with regards our European neighbours, especially along the Kent coast?

Many thanks Local Hiker, I shall remember that for next time.
You are correct John Walker, but why is the date of its modification significant to the town and the Kent coast?

You can remove or replace posted images and edit the text on existing posts using the "modify" option.
So, you could remove the image with properties and replace it with a copy after removing the properties.

Your coastal clue made me think of Sandwich but not many roads there have house numbers to 150 - so then I turned to Hythe -
St John's Hospital A Grade II Listed Building in Hythe, Kent - Altered in 1802.

A quick clue: It's in a former coastal town

Many thanks for that Local Hiker, I was in a rush to get this up so forgot to remove the data. Unfortunately, now it's posted I can't change it, so if others know how to trace the Long/Lat then it should be easy?

CAT, you have left the lat long in the file properties.
In Windows, to remove properties, right click on file, select "properties", and save a copy with properties removed.
Sorry if I am teaching you to suck eggs, but others may not know how to.

Again, sorry for the delay.
Here is my next. The date of 1802 is fairly significant to the building as well as the place this building is in

The changes are the two buildings after the man standing with his bicycle. The
Fire Station and
The George Hotel
, torn down in 1971 and replaced by a TESCO!!!
Over to you ...

Looks like a view looking north along West Malling High Street?

Well spotted MartinR but it's not Faversham. This one is away from my usual area of entries. A lot of the buildings still exist but some have been replaced with an ugly modern building (in my opinion anyway)

Bit of a long shot, but is the garage structure the old Faversham police station? The lamp looks suspiciously similar to the one from there that's on display at Bluewater.

It most certainly is John Walker seen from the rear. Over to you.
