Interesting little place, not much to see but great commentary & video guide. Staff member on site was very friendly & helpful.

Steeped in history, religion, intrigue, mystery and beautiful architecture - Temple Manor is a beautiful example of a building from roughly 1240 attributed to the Knights Templar. Well worth the visit - in fact a must visit if you love history, British history, religion and of course architecture. Well done English Heritage and the Medway Council for saving and presenting this very important piece of Kent history. The building is simply stunning and fascinating an absolute delight to see - once found! It is located in the bowels of a grimy industrial estate but that seems only to elevated its status as a sanctuary and oasis of calm. I chose the perfect day to visit. Late morning with bright sunshine peaking though bits of overcast - added too to the experience. The light as it broke through glazed over the brickwork and the earlier magnificent stone walls. I was the only one on the site and had it all to myself apart from the lovely woman who was its carer for the day. She was welcoming and engaging and I roamed and contemplated while I wandered around. I loved my visit - perhaps even more as I achieved finding it after arriving at the Strood train station. Many thanks to the very kind woman who did steer me in the correct direction and was ever so kind. So is it worth the mission to find it - as they say on Britain's Got Talent - "it is a big fat YES from me"!
