Circular Walk from Rochester
'On older versions of the Ordnance Survey Maps for the area (163 and 148) there is a recreational trail marked called "Centenary Walk Rochester". There were also similar Centenary walks devised in Canterbury and Maidstone to celebrate the centenary of the Kent County Council which took place in 1989. These walks appear to have not been promoted for some time and I have been unable to find any real information about them on the internet. On the ground the routes had once been way marked although now almost none of this way marking remains. However while the routes remained marked on the OS maps both the Canterbury and Maidstone centenary walks, which were both circular walks, were relatively easy to follow. The Rochester walk however has always appeared more confusing ...'
'Back at the car I had walked 12.3 miles. In the end I am not sure how accurately I had followed the route of the old Centenary Walk - Rochester, however this had been a good circular walk with the outward stretch heading past the historic buildings of Rochester and then up along the North Downs and with a good riverside walk for the return leg.'
