ROCHESTER, Kent | 4K Narrated Walking Tour | Let's Walk 2024

Join me for a walk around the historic town of Rochester - once upon a time a city, and the only place in Britain to ever lose its city status. Home to plenty of history at every turn, Rochester boasts a spectacular Norman castle, a gorgeous cathedral, a fetching High Street, and plenty of addresses frequented by the author Charles Dickens, a lifelong admirer of this town! On our walk around Rochester, we pass a number of interesting landmarks, including Chertsey's Gate, Mr. Tope's House, Rochester High Street, Rochester Cathedral, Gundulf's Tower, Deanery Gate, St. Nicholas' Church, Rochester Castle, Rochester Castle Moat Graveyard, River Medway, The Bridge Chapel, Rochester Bridge, The Royal Crown Hotel, The Royal Victoria & Bull Hotel, The Guildhall Museum, Rochester Green Victorian Postbox, Rochester Corn Exchange, The King's Head, Abdication House, The Gordon Hotel, Rochester Huguenot Museum, Six Poor Travellers' House, The French Hospital (La Providence), Eastgate House, and Rochester City Walls.
