Faversham and the Saxon Shore Way
Our view
From Front Brents car park, walk past the Albion Taverna along Faversham Creek. On the opposite bank you’ll pass a scene of wharfs and warehouses and modern marina-style housing, with the flying spire of St Mary of Charity visible above the rooflines. Display boards announce you are now on the Two Creeks Circular Walk. Follow the well-made path as far as you can along the waterfront, then head briefly inland, detouring around new housing on your right. Follow the path along a concrete wall beside industrial buildings, ignoring any adjoining paths bearing off to your left. Turn right at the far end of the buildings and walk beside a couple of arable fields through a kissing gate back to the creek.
Climb onto the raised bank and turn left along the Saxon Shore Way, past moored boats and a handsome old warehouse (Oyster Bay House). The route is straightforward. Keeping the creek on your right, simply follow the embankment path over the marshes in a broad left-handed arc past drainage ditches, mudflats and inland lagoons. You will go through a couple of kissing gates and pass information boards with details on local wildlife. On the opposite bank you’ll notice the farm at Nagden, but otherwise there's nothing but wildlife and views towards the Swale Estuary beyond a line of pylons ahead of you.
