About the event

Let's take a walk along the Swale in one of those beautiful coastal towns where the river end its course into the sea, the colourful Faversham! Faversham is a beautiful little town in the Eastern part of England.There has been a settlement at Faversham since pre-Roman times, next to the ancient sea port on Faversham Creek. It was inhabited by the Saxons and mentioned in the Domesday Book of 1086 as Favreshant. The town was favoured by King Stephen who established Faversham Abbey, which survived until the Dissolution of the Monasteries in 1538. . Faversham Market has been established for over 900 years and is still based in the town centre.

We will walk through the cobalt streets and make our way to Oare Marshes, a beautiful area where swamps, rivers and ponds attract a multitude of migrating birds and will walk along the Swale and the sea until we get tired.

Of course we will end this trip with food or drinks at one of the many restaurants in Faversham, unless you prefer to get back on the train directly. We are there to have a good time and enjoy nature and architecture.
