I was puzzled by this building, one of just a few weather-boarded dwellings in this village and those nearby. Later, looking at the photo I'd taken, I noticed the tall windows facing the street, and the regular layout of the end elevation. Tall windows might suggest that the building started off as a school - or, if north-facing, use as an artist's studio. But in this case I suspect that the name Wesley Cottage gives a hefty clue - this must have been a Methodist chapel. As it happens, I'd Geographed something quite similar just a few weeks earlier: Image - not so many miles away. But I was weary as I walked along Silver Street - I'd been up at 5am and spent seven very warm hours tramping around Sheppey on the day of the Swale Barge Match. The penny didn't drop.
