Mid KentRochester

Rochester, on the river Medway, opposite Chatham, this town and port is very busy, with shops and amenities, yet lots of old buildings, some associated with Charles Dickens.

Reflecting Rochester's strategic river position it was fortified by the Romans, Saxons and Normans, bits of the old walls remain.

Quite a few things to see in the area in addition to going to Chatham.
