#rochester #holiday #kent #darrenniletravel
Our first visit to a beautiful historic Rochester, Kent .
Rochester is a town in the unitary authority of Medway, in Kent, England. It is at the lowest bridging point of the River Medway about 30 miles (50 km) from London. Rochester was a city until losing its status as one in 1998 following the forming of Medway and failing to protect its status as a city.

Our visit to Rochester, Kent
A quick visit to the historic town of Rochester, on the banks for the River Medway in Kent
From the High Street, that follows the Roman road from London to Dover, known as Watling Street. Also known to Charles Dickens, who featured many of the building in his stories. We take in the Guildhall Museum, discover the College Gate before heading onto Rochester's Visitor's Centre & Art Gallery (including the Huguenot Museum) before strolling onto Eastgate House.
Our tour now takes us up Crow Lane towards the Vines, past Restoration House. A quick stroll through the Vines park before detouring around towards The Precinct before heading onto Rochester Cathedral. The cathedral dates from AD604, which makes Rochester Castle, and it's Keep, pretty modern at 1127.

This town forgot to be a city
Rochester, in the south-east of England, was a city for nearly 800 years. And then, in 1998, an administrative error took that city status away, likely forever. Here's the story.

A Day Trip To Rochester, Kent | ad
Rochester in Kent makes a great wintery day trip, just 45 minutes from central London with Southeastern Railway.
With a beautiful high street lined with historic buildings, Rochester Cathedral and Rochester Castle – one of the best-preserved and finest example of Norman architecture in England, there’s plenty of things to see and do.
It’s also filled with independent stores and hidden gems. There’s Pips of Rochester, a lovely local greengrocers selling local produce, Kiss Kiss Heart and Paloma Studio which sell gorgeous gifts and Dickens House Wine Emporium – a wine store in a building that was once the apothecary where Charles Dickens collected his medicines.
The food scene in Rochester is also pretty special. Topes is the place for the best food in the town, serving gourmet dishes in...

A Day Trip from London: Guide to Rochester in Medway | Places to visit in Kent
Take a virtual walking tour of Rochester in Kent with us and visit Rochester Castle, Rochester Cathedral and the small city's historic high street.
Rochester is a small City in Medway, North Kent - only taking between 30 mins to an hour away from London by train so makes for the perfect day trip from the city being small enough to take in all the sights in one day.
The city is full of history having grown from a small Saxon village to an important site for the Romans and then a defence site for the Normans. It was then made famous through many of Charles Dickens novels where he mentioned his beloved home town.
Come with us as we take a walk down the Victorian high street, enjoy breakfast at Cafe Nucleus and then take a walk around the rest of the city.

Is Rochester STILL Worth Visiting? (Rochester Kent)
Rochester is one of the UK's historic gems with it's links to Charles Dickens and iconic historical landmarks but is it still worth visiting in 2022?
Join us in one of Kent's most visited cities as we explore the historic centre, with an early morning visit to the beautiful Rochester Cathedral where we have a fight with an ancient door before walking along the quaint and picturesque High Street in search of coffee.
Fuelled by our caffeine intake we explore Rochester Castle which overlooks the River Medway and the entire town with 360 degree panoramic views (don't look down if you're afraid of heights).
Before we bring our visit to an end we try Tony Lorenzos for a spot of lunch which we enjoy in The Vines, a town centre green space before the Great British weather takes a turn as we wan...

Thameslink and East Midlands Railway Trains at West Hampstead Thameslink on July 12th 2024
1st visit to West Hampstead Thameslink on the Midland Main Line
Featuring services from Thameslink and East Midlands Railway
On the morning of filming there was disruption for Thameslink services for Rainham (Kent) between Gravesend and Rochester due to a track defect near Strood.
West Hampstead Thameslink first opened by the Midland Railway in March 1871 as West End for Kilburn & Hampstead when the line was extended to London St Pancras.
In 1878 the station formed part of the former Super Outer Circle from St Pancras to Earls Court via Acton Central and Turnham Green which ran until 1908.
The station itself has been renamed several names over the decades firstly in 1903 to West End, West End and Brondesbury in 1904, West Hampstead in 1905 then became West Hampstead Midland in Sept...

Our first visit to a beautiful historic Rochester, Kent .
Rochester is a town in the unitary authority of Medway, in Kent, England. It is at the lowest bridging point of the River Medway about 30 miles (50 km) from London. Rochester was a city until losing its status as one in 1998 following the forming of Medway and failing to protect its status as a city. There have been ongoing campaigns to reinstate the city status for Rochester.
Rochester was for many years a favourite of Charles Dickens, who owned nearby Gads Hill Place, Higham, basing many of his novels on the area. The Diocese of Rochester, the second oldest in England, is centred on Rochester Cathedral and was responsible for the founding of a school, now The King's School in 604 AD, which is recognised as being the second oldest continuously running school in the world. Rochester Castle, built by Bishop Gundulf of Rochester, has one of the best preserved keeps in either England or France, and during the First Barons' War (1215–1217) in King John's reign, baronial forces captured the castle from Archbishop Stephen Langton and held it against the king, who then besieged it.
Rochester, Chatham and Gillingham, Strood and a number of outlying villages form a single large urban area known as the Medway Towns with a population of about 250,000. These places now make up the Medway Unitary Authority area. It was, until 1998, under the control of Kent County Council and is still part of the ceremonial county of Kent, under the latest Lieutenancies Act.

Rochester in Kent makes a great wintery day trip, just 45 minutes from central London with Southeastern Railway.
With a beautiful high street lined with historic buildings, Rochester Cathedral and Rochester Castle – one of the best-preserved and finest example of Norman architecture in England, there’s plenty of things to see and do.
It’s also filled with independent stores and hidden gems. There’s Pips of Rochester, a lovely local greengrocers selling local produce, Kiss Kiss Heart and Paloma Studio which sell gorgeous gifts and Dickens House Wine Emporium – a wine store in a building that was once the apothecary where Charles Dickens collected his medicines.
The food scene in Rochester is also pretty special. Topes is the place for the best food in the town, serving gourmet dishes including pigeon, mackerel and sea bream. Fleur De Thé is a cute tea room / gift shop. It’s super photogenic and wow do they make a good cuppa!
Another great hidden gem was Playopolis Board Games Café just around the end of the high street. Opened last year, this family run board game café has over 700 board games, plus they serve fun cocktails too including Butterbeer!

Come with us as we take a walk down the Victorian high street, enjoy breakfast at Cafe Nucleus and then take a walk around the rest of the city.
Comment below and let us know if you've visited Rochester before and/ or if you have any recommendations for us!

Rochester is one of the UK's historic gems with it's links to Charles Dickens and iconic historical landmarks but is it still worth visiting in 2022?
Join us in one of Kent's most visited cities as we explore the historic centre, with an early morning visit to the beautiful Rochester Cathedral where we have a fight with an ancient door before walking along the quaint and picturesque High Street in search of coffee.
Fuelled by our caffeine intake we explore Rochester Castle which overlooks the River Medway and the entire town with 360 degree panoramic views (don't look down if you're afraid of heights).
Before we bring our visit to an end we try Tony Lorenzos for a spot of lunch which we enjoy in The Vines, a town centre green space before the Great British weather takes a turn as we wander Rochester's riverside.
So come and join us on this epic summer adventure around historic Rochester!

Thameslink and East Midlands Railway Trains at West Hampstead Thameslink on July 12th 2024
1st visit to West Hampstead Thameslink on the Midland Main Line
Featuring services from Thameslink and East Midlands Railway
On the morning of filming there...
1st visit to West Hampstead Thameslink on the Midland Main Line
Featuring services from Thameslink and East Midlands Railway
On the morning of filming there was disruption for Thameslink services for Rainham (Kent) between Gravesend and Rochester due to a track defect near Strood.
West Hampstead Thameslink first opened by the Midland Railway in March 1871 as West End for Kilburn & Hampstead when the line was extended to London St Pancras.
In 1878 the station formed part of the former Super Outer Circle from St Pancras to Earls Court via Acton Central and Turnham Green which ran until 1908.
The station itself has been renamed several names over the decades firstly in 1903 to West End, West End and Brondesbury in 1904, West Hampstead in 1905 then became West Hampstead Midland in September 1950 and then becoming West Hampstead Thameslink in May 1988
There is interchange to nearby West Hampstead stations of both London Overground's North London Line and also the London Underground station which was first opened in 1879 by the Metropolitan Railway then became part of Bakerloo Line in 1939 and since May 1979 been served by Jubilee Line.
There had been plans to connect all three however never materialised due to soaring financial cost
Today all services at West Hampstead Thameslink served by Thameslink services on the slow line platforms by Luton to Rainham via Greenwich, St Albans City to Sutton via Wmbledon or Mitcham Junction as well as peak hour services to and from Orpington.
Fast line platforms are used by services to and from Brighton and Bedford which run non stop between West Hampstead Thameslink and St Albans City
With the only exception being Bedford to Three Bridges services via Redhill
All Thameslink services have been since August 2017 have been provided by Class 700s built by Siemens
East Midlands Railway services at present are provided by Class 222 Meridians from London St Pancras to Nottingham and Sheffield although at the time of filming are due to be replaced by Class 810 Auroras which are being tested which are due to enter service from January 2025.
Other services including half hourly electric services to and from Corby provided by Class 360s which moved from Greater Anglia in late 2019

Trips to the continent are also within easy reach via the Eurostar, which departs from nearby Ebbsfleet.
