As
anyone who has visited the town will tell you the picturesque 'Cinque Port' of
Tenterden has every reason to declare itself 'The Jewel of the Weald'. Its fine
High Street must rank amongst the most attractive in the Country with historic
houses, shops, restaurants and pubs separated from the carriageway by wide
expanses of tree-lined grass verge.
William Caxton, who
in 1477 printed the first English book, was said to have been born here.
Keeping guard over the town is the pinnacled tower of St. Mildreds Church from
where once the signal beacon warned of the approach of the Spanish Armada, and
where later Lord Nelson's daughter, Horatia was the wife of the
vicar.
But Tenterden
is also a town for the 21st century with modern amenities, varied and
interesting shopping, great places to stay, fascinating museums and visitor
attractions, and events for all the family.
We hope this website will give you a
taste of what Tenterden has to offer to both day and longer staying visitors -
we look forward to welcoming you....... |
