  • This was a delightful 15.5 miles of walking in North Kent, on a lovely Summer's afternoon. For the first 5 miles, or so, there were the traditional Kentish views of Oasts, fruit orchards and arable fields. There was also some challenging walking through Rape and over-grown paths; encounters this walker notes whenever in Kent, for some reason.
    The remaining 10 miles, or so, is through the marshlands of the Kent Coast, passing former brickworks, and then the coastal vistas of The swale on one side and the Luddenham Marshes on the other. A rare Cuckoo is again heard, as is the unusual sound of the Hungarian Marsh Frog, spreading rapidly from its Romney Marsh release point. It was a first time hearing for this walker and quite amazing to hear!
    As the walk turns landward again, there's more creek-side walking and then more fields before reaching the pleasant town of Faversham.
    A very nice walk indeed! A lovely contrast of peaceful orchards and then the solitude of sea-wall walking along the coast. A shame that some of the lesser-used paths were almost impassable!

    The animal sound you heard may of been Mink , many years ago a Mink farm was at the Gravney (seasalter) side of marshes

      Thanks for watching Jamie.
      I can't recall exactly the sound I think you're referring to, but I later found the Hungarian Marsh frog inhabits the area; have a listen😉👍

      @@jamieivory9746 When first heard, as it was for me, and not being a native creature, it was a bizarre sound! 😳👍
