Well done, excellent result. ;D ;D ;D
 It appears to be in the grounds of what is now a large school, so we were correct in thinking it belonged to a large house.
There is an excellent item about a visit to this church here     http://churchcrawler-kentchurches.blogspot.co.uk/2010/10/st-mary-betteshanger.html#links
I was surprised to see how far away from the church are those gateposts.

Fantastic work Spidermonkey!!  I have searched endlessly and was beginning to think this one wouldn't be found.  It's a beautiful little church too.  Well done too Mo and Pat for the research  ;D

Sorry Pat,

If I had realised you had posted I would have deleted it.  I think everyone should read it to the very end as it is rather touching.

Has anyone noticed the lucarnes (little louvered dormers in the spire for those who haven't completed their homework  ;D) are missing on the more recent photo.
