Sparked a Memory for you?
If this has sparked a memory, why not share it here?
During the late 1940s and early 1950s my brothers and I were Scouts and each summer we went to Scout Camp at Westgate on Sea.
There was no M20 in those days so our journey by lorry took us through Maidstone High Street and we were all excited to be the first to spot the cannon which I believe was captured at Sebastopol during the Crimean War.
In high summer it could take half an hour to pass through the town!
Great days.
