Come along on Saturday 27th September for a coach trip to visit three pretty villages in Kent!
About the day
The name Kent is of Celtic origin, dates back to the 4th century BC and is one of the earliest names recorded in Britain. It translates as 'coastal district,' 'corner-land' or 'land on the edge'.The county of Kent has stunning countryside and a pretty coastline. It has been known as the 'Garden of England' for over 400 years due to its long-standing reputation for agricultural excellence, particularly fruit orchards, hop gardens, and wine production.
We will be visiting three pretty villages:
Chilham
Chilham has plenty of flower-adorned Tudor houses with red slate roofs and historical pubs. It is centred on a market square, at each end of the square are its major buildings: the Jacobean Chilham Castle and the 15th-century parish church, dedicated to St. Mary.The village has been used in countless films and T.V dramas, including: Jane Austen's Emma, the Adventures of Moll Flanders and Agatha Christie's Poirot.
Cranbrook
Known as the 'Capital of the Weald' (means wood or forest), Cranbrook is a pretty village with a medieval street layout. Many buildings date from the 15th century and the Union Windmill, a working mill which dominates the skyline is a striking building built back to 1814 and symbolizes the agricultural legacy of the area.Aylesford
Aylesford is a village on the River Medway, accessed via a medieval five-arched bridge. Walk across the bridge and it gives a brilliant photo opportunity with the view of the village behind.A number of infamous battles took place at Aylesford; between the Britons and Romans, then against the Jutes and then against the Vikings.
