BATTLE OF BRITAIN EASY ACCESS  HISTORY TRAIL LAUNCHED

The Memorial at Capel-le-Ferne

Easy access trails including one for Dover and another encompassing the history of the Battle of Britain have been launched by Kent County Council to help people discover the stories behind seven of Kent's historic fortified towns and sites.

The trails were developed by KCC's Heritage Conservation and Access Development teams with the help of local access groups. 

Full-colour pocket guides have been produced with maps showing gradients, disabled facilities, and places of interest for the Battle of Britain, Canterbury, Dover Castle, Hythe, Rochester, Sandwich and Tonbridge. They can be obtained from tourist information offices and at the sites. 

The Battle of Britain trail takes in Capel-le-Ferne, Hawkinge, and Brenzett in Shepway. Click here for a detailed list of trails.
