On the 5th January we will be strolling from Newington to visit some of the nearby villages. The walk will start at Newington Station Car Park. From the car park we will make our way passed Newington Church walking down to Lower Halstow allowing us views of the River Medway. From there we will stroll onto Upchurch and then back through orchards on footpaths and country lanes until we return to Newington. Along the way we will hear tales of what the Devil got up to in Newington, how someone used pottery to commune with the ghost of Lawrence of Arabia and ships bobbing on the Medway full of potentially infectious individuals.📅 Date: 5th January2025
