taken 14 years ago, near to North Cray, Bexley, England

The White Cross, North Cray Road
The White Cross, North Cray Road
The White Cross dates back to at least 1729 and was once known as the Red Cross Inn. However, before the Second World War the War Office ruled that the name violated the terms of the Geneva Convention protecting the symbols of the International Red Cross Society so the name was changed. The other significant change is that whereas the road in front of it would once have been a quiet country lane, it is now a very busy dual carriageway - the photograph is taken from the central reservation.
