The Saxon Shore Way, and the other long-distance footpaths in Kent.

The Saxon Shore Way is a long-distance footpath in England. It starts at Gravesend, Kent, and traces the coast of South-East England as it was in Roman times as far as Hastings, East Sussex, 163 miles (262 km) in total.[1] This means that around Romney Marsh the route runs significantly inland from the modern coastline.
