Eynsford Ford reflects the traditional way used to cross a stream or small river, via a shallow point. It was an important crossing back in Roman times.

Head there June/July time for the lavender. The farm shop over the road is lovely for a mooch and they also have a coffee truck now too.

Be careful for oncoming cars!

Following the Black Death, the village was abandoned, and the church stood empty for centuries. In 1990 Doug Chapman, a chartered surveyor who had worked at Canterbury Cathedral, purchased the church and began restoring the building, originally with the intention of turning it into a weekend home. Since 1999 it has been licensed as a civil wedding venue.

Lullingstone Country Park is a designated Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI). The park is home to diverse flora and fauna and features trails that wind through ancient woodlands and grasslands. As well as this, it's home to Lullingstone Castle, a historic manor house with a unique World Garden. This garden showcases plants from around the globe and is a testament to the adventurous spirit of the owners who collected them.

It's one of my favourite routes. Rode up it last week without encountering a single moving vehicle. Currently the sweetcorn crop in the fields which line much of the road is fairly high and obscures some of the view of the road ahead in places; great time to ride this route for best visibility is early Spring and during Autumn; also great in Winter on days when roads aren't slippery.

unbelievably scenic
