Rochester, originally a Roman settlement, boasts a 12th-century castle with a stone tower known as a keep.
Although much of it is now in ruin, it still one of the best-preserved, and tallest, medieval structures in England or even France.Â
Standing on the banks of the River Medway, Kent, it has played a strategic role in England’s defence for centuries, having experienced various sieges.
Even the Normans built an original structure during the 11th century.
Rochester is a unique destination. A famous local was Charles Dickens.Â
Rochester inspired his literary works and, today, visitors can follow in his footsteps and marvel at the area’s medieval architecture, its historic cathedral, and with a Dickensian twist!
Here’s your opportunity to add something different to your visit to England so many still miss.
This tour can be delivered as a day tour on its own, (as listed); or please enquire if you wish to add to an overall day trip with another destination in Kent.Â
