Canterbury & District


Starting at Canterbury's Westgate Tower we visit various city landmarks such as St Stephen's Church and the preserved locomotive Invicta. The tour of Kent follows with stops at Fordham church and the River Stour. Chilham's quiet lanes and quaint buildings are followed by an old mill on the Lesser Stour at Wickhambreaux. We see the ferry at Groveferry taking its passengers back and forth across the Great Stour. The film ends with a quick glimpse of Southampton's Bargate.
