Join Andrew, a local historian, and Ben, a professional photographer, on a stunning walk in Canterbury to include a photography masterclass, a local history guide, lunch and refreshments, and a chance to find out more about the wonderful and largely undiscovered parts of Chatham Maritime. 

We start this easy photo walk at the former Naval Base, now a university campus, and photograph the maritime and industrial heritage surrounding us. We’ll take you on flat route, to the ship yards of the Historic Chatham Dockyard, to shoot the huge dock basins which separate St Mary’s Island from the ‘mainland’. Learn of the strange and murky history of this island, and locate the only part of Kent where you can get both the Elizabethan and the Norman castles of Upnor and Rochester in one shot. Lunch with us at The Pumproom, a red brick slice of Victorian ingenuity.

The walk will last a couple of hours, with a further hour set aside for lunch and conversation. You'll leave with lasting memories (and a photo or two taken by Ben!) of these quintessentially Kent places. 

Cost is £75 per person. 

Additional Information

  • The walks start and end at a train station and are accessible to any reasonably fit person.
