The community of Lenham commemorates the dead of the Second World War with a horizontal stone cross.

A relatively modern chalk symbol sculpted in the hillside

Be careful going downhill, there may be oncoming traffic and ahead visibilty is very limited. Road often full of mud and small rocks at the bottom of the hill. Beatiful setting at the top end (at the sharp bend). It's an entrace to the Hucking Woodland Trust estate, beautiful tree great around sunset.

The attentive hiker or pilgrim has repeatedly encountered a wide variety of types of crosses on his way: made of stone (often granite) or wood, with or without the body of the crucified Christ, artistically decorated or deliberately kept simple, towering high and thus dominating the surroundings from afar or rather smaller... This hiking highlight, however, is sure to take a top spot in the ranking of the most unusual crosses. It does not tower up, but is quite the opposite, cut into the ground so that the light background of this lying monument stands out clearly from the surrounding green of the lawn. The basic idea of such a design - known in technical jargon as geoglyps - is similar to the "Nazca Lines" in South America, which are thousands of years older; or, to give a much closer example, the "White Horse" on Uffington Hill (see https://www.komoot.com/de-de/highlight/283565 ). The sad reason for its construction is to commemorate the victims of the First World War.

Boxley Warren is a 83-hectare Local Nature Reserve north of Maidstone in Kent

Great views down to Lenham and beyond.

Part of the Pilgrim’s Way, this is a stunning viewpoint from Boxley Hill overlooking the Kent Downs.

The 58m high chalk cross is situated on the Pilgrim's Way, on the slopes of the ridge above the A20. It is an eye-catching design cut into the hillside, forming a striking image against the green fields surrounding it. In 1922 a collection was held to build a memorial for the 42 men who died during the first world war. The cross was designed by Mr C.H.Groom, headmaster of the village school. There was also a granite stone with the names of the men, which was moved to the churchyard in 1977. The eye catching cross was a problem during the second world war, and was filled in during that time to prevent the Luftwafte using it to navigate.
