Farningham Brick Bridge and Mill

Highlight • Bridge

The white houses in the background are interesting. I've heard storys linking these to early American houses.
We are about 2 miles from Brands Hatch, on race days you can hear the motors.

Pilgrims Way Road

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

An absolutely stunning piece of road along Pilgrims Way. A road that you can stay on from Canterbury to Winchester

One of the best stretches of road in the south-east. Rolling without being hilly, the surface is mostly good and the views are exceptional. You can ride Pilgrims Way on and off all the way to Canterbury.
