Why Kent?


As we drive through Kent, entering on the M25 at Sevenoaks and through natural selection on to the M20. Bypassing Maidstone and passing through Ashford we arrive at Folkstone. Our destination is the Channel Tunnel Crossing.

From the counties point of view we have not seen anything. Sticking to the motorway that is usually full of fast moving traffic, what could we see? As the driver I am not able to see much more than the road ahead. There is much more to see.  The purpose of this blog is to open up Kent to my self, my family and anyone wanting to take advantage of the information.

When looking at the map, it is quickly seen that water surrounds half of the county. Sea mean coastlines and coast could mean beaches. There are beaches on the northern side from what on the map is shown as Herne Bay to Margate. On the eastern coast Deal also has a beach.

As Kent is known as the "Garden of England" one can expect a lot of green areas. Also from the map we see an area on the border with East Sussex that looks quite hilly.

When searching information about Gillingham (North) it is shown also to be a part of Kent although on this map it appears to be outside the the counties border.

This page will be updated the more I find out.
