This compound, just off the A2 at Keycol Hill is owned by Southern Water. What might be in those blue tanks that requires this level of security?!

In South Water depot area, on Rook Lane. Houses in background are part of a new estate 2006-2007 built on the former site of Keycol Hospital.

Dist:0.1km<br/>This old gate, stile and footpath sign are alongside the A2, Keycol Hill. Five yards over the stile, the path becomes a very muddy ploughed field with no indication as to which way the path goes.

Dist:0.2km<br/>Tucked away behind the new houses in Rook Close is the Southlands Unit. The unit occupies new buildings, as well as this small "leftover" from the former Keycol Hospital (now demolished). The Southlands Unit provides a service for carers of those suffering from memory affecting illnesses (such as dementia). The aim of the service is to help alleviate the pressure and burden of care that friends and family members often find themselves laden with when supporting someone affected by such illnesses.

Dist:0.2km<br/>The hospital has gone, now replaced with a small estate of "executive" houses. The entrance gateposts, wrought iron fence and walls remain - alongside the A2 at Keycol Hill.

Dist:0.3km<br/>There seem to be huge numbers of rooks in this part of Kent this year. These were feeding in a field of stubble where a maize crop has been cut, but the field left unploughed. There are still many birds on the ground between me and the middle tree.
