Wish You Were Here...I Think

I have been very kindly lent a huge collection of postcards to digitise for the Friends of Tunbridge Wells and Rusthall Commons and for the good of the town by the Chairman of the Friends, John Barber. I am hoping to share the entire collection with you with some surrounding history too at some point in the future.

To whet your whistle in the meantime I give you one of the collection I have scanned so far, an unstamped but rather heavily used postcard of St. Mark's Church on Broadwater Down.

Can you decipher any of the myriad of messages? Why not leave anything you can read in the comments below and together perhaps we can read the whole thing.

Also, if you have any Tunbridge Wells postcards and would like to contribute to an archive of them I am creating then please drop me an email.

  • A spritely 30-something living with my beautiful wife in the most fabulous town in the entire world, Royal Tunbridge Wells.
    We love to soak up the culture, nature and the countryside in this idyllic part of the Weald and because we love our town so much I made this blog to share it with the rest of you.
    If you have any questions, comments or suggestions then please get in touch with us by sending us an email.
