Overview

We follow the River Medway to Wateringbury then cross the bridge over the river to walk back along the other side of the Medway. We leave the river and head for Tutsham Hall and the mill-workers cottages of the old Tutsham Linseed Oil Factory, which now lies in ruins after a big fire in 1885.  We then head to West Farleigh cricket ground with its attractive thatched-roof pavilion and on to Kettle Corner.  Crossing back over the river we walk along the riverbank back to Teston.
