St Lawrence Chapel and Chantry House


The pictures (from two of my local history publications) click here to enlarge are the ones I promised to publish the other day, showing Holy Trinity Chapel and its priests residence, the Chantry House (on the junction of Ellington Place, left and Grange Rd. right) more detail about the chapel in my previous posting.

It is refreshing to get away from modern local problems, where trying to ascertain answers to simple questions is inclined to remind one of Sir Walter Scott’s immortal words.

Oh what tangled webs we weave
When first we practise to deceive.
And when we've practiced for awhile,
How we do improve our style!

Comments, since I started writing this blog in 2007 the way the internet works has changed a lot, comments and dialogue here were once viable in an open and anonymous sense. Now if you comment here I will only allow the comment if it seems to make sense and be related to what the post is about. I link the majority of my posts to the main local Facebook groups and to my Facebook account, “Michael Child” I guess the main Ramsgate Facebook group is We Love Ramsgate. For the most part the comments and dialogue related to the posts here goes on there. As for the rest of it, well this blog handles images better than Facebook, which is why I don’t post directly to my Facebook account, although if I take a lot of photos I am so lazy that I paste them directly from my camera card to my bookshop website and put a link on this blog.
