Kent and Sussex Heritage Tours

The county of Kent in South East England has one of the longest coastlines of any English county. Dover, famed for its iconic White Cliffs is just 21 miles across the English Channel to the French coast. No wonder we have such a rich maritime heritage which we share with our neighbour ‘Sussex by the sea’!

Our past can be traced back hundreds of thousands of years, and today its legacies can be seen in the landscape and in the towns, villages, architecture, fortifications, castles, stately homes and museums. Here the Romans came in 55 and 54BC and again (this time to stay for almost 400 years) in 43 AD. Jutes, Vikings and Saxons came leaving their influences in place names and ancient settlements.

The Battle of Hastings,fought here in 1066, marked the arrival of the Normans – those great builders of castles and cathedrals which we still admire throughout our region. It is difficult to travel anywhere in Kent without bumping into King Henry V111 (or certainly his legacy or his castles or, indeed tales of his wives)!

Dover was Frontline Britain in 1940, with the Evacuation of Dunkirk being master-minded from the Secret Wartime Tunnels, deep below Dover Castle and The Battle of Britain being fought by ‘The Few’ brave pilots over the cliffs and fields of the now peaceful Kentish countryside. Indeed, we are known as ‘The Garden of England’.
