Way of Saint Martin: A Slow Pilgrimage from Dover to Canterbury

A time travelling self-guided pilgrimage in Kent taking in the ruins of Saint Martin le Grand in Dover and Saint Martin's church in Canterbury. The 21 mile slow pilgrimage route follows in the footsteps of medieval pilgrims who travelled from the Continent to visit the shrines of Saints Thomas Becket Edmund of Abingdon and Richard of Chichester. The route follows the history and landscape of the area. From the Bronze Age boat at Dover, through Roman and medieval times to the industrial age. The landscape takes in chalk streams and dry valleys as well as the Kent Downs recognised as an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The pilgrimage is split into six short linear walks with public transport connections.
