More about this scene
This rural scene of blossom trees is mostly a forgotten sight here today. The village has been eclipsed by 20th-century housing developments. However, there is still a good view from the Norman St Margaret's Church. Reminders of the old village can still be seen, including St Helen's - a wooden bridge now closed to traffic.

Sparked a Memory for you?
If this has sparked a memory, why not share it here?
Unfortunately Barming doesn't go down well in my memories, I was only a child but I remember going with my dad and brother to what I thought was a hospital but it wasn't, my mother was locked up there several times and I found out much later she is a manic depressive and it was an asylum she was in called Oakwood, does anyone else remember this place?
The Barming Boys hang around at clair park they are very nice people. Alot say they are the toughest around because they are if they get in to a fight they will always win. The Best one Is Matt he is cool, he cheers people up when they are down.
