Right this was a spur of the moment find as the place we where heading out to just wasnt do-able,its a chapel from a closed down and well demolished college ,i assume the chapel is still there because its listed!well i assume!the college is long gone and rebuilt on i cant find any info on the chapel it self ,but its been there as long as i can remember!right no flashy right up !the place had seen fire damage at some point and was in a bad way most of the stained glass windows had been destroyed,but a few pics of the night are in order..

Ok so after our first plan being a failed attempt better set for another night we decided that we had to get something done and as us Thanet boys like our local bits we decided to think of something a bit closer to home. We put our heads together and then I remembered a little building I had noticed quite some time ago.

A nice relaxed explore was had and it gave us something to do. Through all the damage and decay of this place was a beautiful little explore. There has been a large fire at some point and the building is in the early stages of being restored.

This is actually the last remaining building of Kent College which went years ago and left this listed chapel sitting around a now much built up area.

It was good to get another one ticked off the list.

Visited with Fat James, Uncle B, Wevsky and our mate.

Interior (a lot more grand than we thought from the look of the building).

I'd forgotten about this place, glad you finally got inside. :)

Shame I didn't know you were doing it, I was in Thanet last night.
