A tour round the Garden of England - Part 2

Moving on from Whitstable we headed towards our next stopover in Canterbury - where we would spend two nights.

However, we took the scenic route, via Broadstairs



A quiet resort - at least whilst we were there 




With plenty of references to Charles Dickens - who often visited the place when writing some of his novels



This one is The Old Curiosity Shop



Then onto Canterbury, where we visited the Castle




... and the famous Cathedral







We also walked around the remains of St Augustine's Abbey








We also cycled along the Great Stour Way - part of the National Cycle Network



We cycled from Canterbury to the village of Chartham



Apparently you can take a punt for some of the way






This train is heading for London Victoria - note the wooden signal box, which was built in the 1880s
