Woo! I graduated twice at Canterbury cathedral. It is a sight to behold.

[@Wally-H]

Me too, only once though in 1997, what was your year?

[@Davo-007]

Not sure if you've been but Windsor is a must. From the Railway station to the town itself its quite historic. There's a crooked house there, lovely parks and the River. Then the castle which is huge in itself. The biggest habital Castle in the world full of little treasures - The armoury inside has things of Napoleon's, Nelson and Wellington. It's also an active Army Barracks so you'll see the Kings guards marching about and then you have the Chapel where the Royal Weddings took place and the Queens funeral finished and where she was put to rest.

[@glanguish9390]

If you ever do Kent, try St Leonards Ossuary for a creepy crypt experience. 4000 men women and children's bones decorate the place

[@paulgrimwood2145]

You are in my home county. Great to have you here. Whilst you were in Kent, you would have liked Rochester, lots of Dickens references and the house he wrote a lot of novels in. Quaint little place with another cathedral, a castle and a good museum. Plenty of shops you don't normally get in High Streets. In spring there are lots of blossom routes to meander round in a car looking at all the apple and pear blossom.

[@TheMagicGeekdom]

Next time! We are planning our next trip

[@catherinemd6129]

You should go to the Cotswolds. I think you would love it there. It's beautiful.

[@denisegale4756]

If ever you are back in Kent again you should try to track down a gypsy tart as they are delicious though they can be hard to find sometimes. Some bakeries still do them and sometimes they do them in Asda but it’s a sweet pudding that doesn’t get enough attention and is definitely one of my favourites.

[@Lily-Bravo]

They did gypsy tart for dessert for school dinners back in my childhood. I went home for dinner but occasionally stayed for lunch and it was always a special treat when it was gypsy tart day.

[@christoguichard4311]

Made from brown sugar and evaporated milk. 😊 Ive eaten many of the last 50 years!

Gypsy tarts are readily available in most Kent supermarkets. Sometimes the filling could be runny at my school in the 50's and 60's.

If you want to see ‘crooked houses’, do visit Lavenham in Suffolk. It is one of the most historic and beautiful villages in England, and there isn’t a straight line in the place!

[@t.a.k.palfrey3882]

Have you visited England's capital before London, Winchester? It's cathedral is home to the tombs of nine Anglo-Saxon kings of England and a queen, and boasts the longest nave of any Gothic cathedral in Europe. Many more are thought to have been buried in the Old Minster, which the "new" cathedral replaced in 1093. The city is home to Winchester College. An hour away is Salisbury, the cathedral with the highest spire in Britain.

[@jenniemorris4520]

Lincoln has an amazing Christmas Market with loads of craft stalls selling traditionally made Christmas gifts. Most of the vendors dress in period costume and it really adds to the atmosphere. Also Cambridge is a beautiful city, lots of ancient buildings. Also King's College Chapel is amazing, its ceiling is beautiful and provides wonderful acoustics. King's College choir are renowned worldwide and seeing the Choristers arrive for Choral Evensong in their traditional and historic uniform is fascinating. The Chapel is open for evensong and it is wonderful to hear their angelic voices soar up to the roof and to enjoy the fantastic acoustics.

Make sure you visit the St Augustines Abbey ruins, St Martins Church and the Roman Museum, all of which these guys missed.

[@wildwine6400]

Theres also Church of St Martin in Canterbury. It is the oldest church in Britain that is still used for services and also the oldest Parish church in the English speaking world. From around 600AD

[@Wally-H]

Yes and St Augustines, they should have gone there instead of the Dane John Gardens which are a waste of time for visitors who only have a day to look round. The Roman Museum in Butchery Lane is also excellent.

[@Wally-H]

Just a couple of notes - 3.38 the Beaney Institute, that is a building made to look old but it's either Victorian or Edwardian (can't remember exactly). It is in fact an excellent (and free to visit) museum so it's a shame you did not go in for a look around. 3.49 the buildings either side of Mercery Lane were two of the many pilgrim's inns where pilgrims who travelled down from London to visit the shrine of Thomas Becket could stay. They, like many other buildings in the high street, are timber framed but have rendering added in the 18th century. A lot of other medieval buildings in the high street actually look Georgian due to their having facades put on in the 1700's but, when you go inside, you see the original timber framed structure. This is also common in many other old towns in Britain. In medieval times, Flemish weavers were plentiful in Canterbury; some of the additional stories on the old buildings, like the one you pointed out, were added as workshops for them - that was a good spot on your part. The high doors your guide pointed out were probably used to raise and lower materials for weaving. There are three world heritage sites in Canterbury, unfortunately you only visited one of them. You could have skipped the Dane John Gardens which are a hang-out for druggies these days (I wouldn't go near the place!) plus the city wall walk and gone instead to the ruins of St Augustines Abbey, and the Anglo-Saxon St Martins church, both World Heritage sites. The Roman Museum in Butchery Lane is also a 'must visit' with its intact Roman villa floor, exposed when Canterbury was bombed in the war. I realise you can't do everything in one day but I wish I'd showed you round as a little better prioritisation would have been useful, and that would have ensured you truly saw the best bits. You say in the video notes that you went to look at all Canterbury has to offer but you didn't really see the half of it in terms of the incredible history in this city. I'd have also taken you for lunch in Marlowes, or the excellent Cafe des Amis which both serve excellent food. I believe I was one of those who encouraged you to visit Canterbury so I am glad you did. I always enjoy your videos, thanks for making them.

There are tiny villages with unusual names in East Anglia such as "Eye",“Stiffkey”, “Slutshole Lane”, “Cock Street”, “Two Mile Bottom”, “Cat's Bottom”, “Gaywood”, “Booty Road” & “Dick's Mount” to name but a few.

Yes, they demolished practically half of the city centre (the east side). The cathedral only survived because fire watchers on the top of the Bell Harry Tower bravely threw some incendiaries off before they could light up.

About those dogs on the tomb stones ... Art used to be FULL of symbols back in medieval times. So dogs were a symbol of loyalty. They are often on tomb stones of women to show that she was a loyal wife and mother. Lions on the other hand are usually on tombstone of men, mostly knights who fought in wars, lions symbolize a valiant warrior. Generally, if you come accross a medieval statue or painting, pay attention to what are they holding in their hands and if there's anything below/around their feet.
