Canterbury street walking

 Canterbury's streets do not lack historic buildings. Maybe not of great importance, but still engaging enough

This is the city's museum. Bit of a hotchpotch of a collection









Canterbury even has a castle, but a very ruined one



This is St Martins Church, which claims to be the oldest church in the English speaking world. Parts date back to Roman times. Unfortunaely it was closed - only limited opening times. Well given how few people were in the massive cathedral, a small (albeit historic) parish church is going to struggle for a congregation, or even visitors.


I think this is the Roman part....





The place has city walls, these skillfully photographed to exclude the car park below...
A pleasant bar called the Foundry, where I had a very decent pint. Suspect the food would have been good too. But very underutilized.








Beautiful gardens down by the river - extremely well kept
