    Michael. Were they modern radiators in picture 10? Surely not.

    Anonymous I hate use the F word so prominent on other blogs but what surprised me was the Fence, Title 1 pictures 2, 3 and 4 as you can see the hedge beside it screens the public lavatory also shown.

    When you look at the view in general Grange trees Abby the Fence is pretty incongruous it seems to contain something of a technical nature, perhaps to do with electricity and may be Ramsgate’s main fuse.

    The radiators in The Grange itself were all of period style however picture 10 shows an outbuilding, best likened to a large neogothic garden shed, that I believe is used for promotional purposes by the landmark trust and has display cases books for sale and so on, so the modern radiators seemed no more out of place than they would have done in a museum.

    I'm not to sure about wanting to stay in a property like this seemed a bit spartan. Only one tele no radio and no computer just how would you amuse yourself in a house like this. Hymms in the chapel?

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.
