A shady arch
The arch of trees over the public footpath at this bend in its route will provide welcome shade in the summer and shelter in the winter, as well as beckoning the walker on to see what is round the bend.

Paris House, The Rocks, East Malling
While in East Malling village I happened to dip into the local Pevsner, and spotted the following entry:
'PARIS HOUSE, The Rocks, 1/4m SE. A highly peculiar early C18 front, two-storeyed, of red brick. Five bays between big symmetrical ragstone chimneybreasts that project from the façade. Panelled parapet below, not in front of, a hipped roof.'
Any building described in Pevsner* as 'peculiar' is likely to be worth a short detour, so I set off along The Rocks Road.
The house is built on a site lower than the road, with a garden to the west enclosed by a high wall. I'd have to agree with John Newman that the building is rather odd - especially those chimneys.
(I have to say, though, that what he reads as a 'parapet' I'd read simply as an attic storey with blocked windows).
