Taken 09/08/2023 from the East. This belongs to Munk's Farm House and the owner explained that it used to be used to lock up drunken rail worker, "navvies", when the nearby Tonbridge-Ashford line was being built. The previous owners had built the frame over it to try and keep it out of the weather. It is currently overun with Ivy. The inner skin is sound but the outer needs to be remade. The owner intends to do this.
