Able's Acre and Victory Hall (2)
This rockery is on Forbes Road. It is seen by most road visitors coming into Faversham. It is maintained by a Friends of Able's Acre Group.
The Friends group was established in 2003 to ensure the continued well-being of the Forbes Road rockery, which in the 1960s was under the care of Walter Abel, parks superintendent of the former Faversham Borough Council, from whose surname its "Abel's Acre" nickname arose.
See http://www.faversham.org/pages/directory_item.aspx?i_PageID=112293 for more details about the friends.
Victory Hall at the top of the rockery is a converted church hall, currently used by a design company.
