Coldrum Longbarrow is the best-preserved megalithic longbarrow in Kent. Owned by the National Trust, this 3,000 year-old burial chamber is the only one of those originally present in the Medway Valley to remain virtually intact. From the landmark, you are afforded mystical views and a wonderfully serene atmosphere.
