The lane runs between Brent Road and West Street. On the right is the rear wall of the Purifier Building, This 19th century brick building was part of the town Gas Works, and had various uses including metering the gas when it came out of the ‘purifiers’ on the adjacent wharf. The building was in a dreadful state of decay after many decades of neglect when the Faversham Trust took it on and, with the help of many volunteers, it was all brought back into use. The eastern wing is now used by a block-maker, and the main arm of the building houses the workshop of a boat-builder, the Shipwrights’ Hall, and the Arthur Percival Room.
