The Cemetery is hidden behind the tress on the left, the field on the right became the Cricket Ground. This picture must have been taken before the 1920s when the "new" A20 was built. Workmen from the A20 works leveled the ground that became the Cricket Ground, moving 1000s of tonnes of material with shovels and wheelbarrows
