The Blue Bell Hill Village sign looks well cared for but sadly that is not the case for The Upper Bell Inn just beyond. It was probably built when it was on the main road between Chatham and Maidstone known as Blue Bell Hill which passed to the left and right in front of the pub. Now the road to the right has been closed off and the very busy and noisy A229 passes underneath Common Road just behind where I am standing. As at 2014 it has now been demolished.
