The Weald of Kent

From St Peter’s Churchyard at Boughton Monchelsea. How many times have we passed by this church, which sits on top of the Greensand Ridge, and not gone through the gate to explore?

This time we did and were rewarded by this fine view from the churchyard of the Weald of Kent with the sun low in the western sky and a large herd of deer browsing in parkland belonging to Boughton Monchelsea Place.

The route was muddy in places with plenty of running water on the narrow lanes which one driver took no notice of and drove as if we weren’t there, splashing us even though we were on the verge. I wonder if he heard our shouts or saw us in his rear view mirror gesticulating at him?
