We reach Tudeley Church after about 1.5 hours in the afternoon; it is the only church in the world to have all of its windows decorated by Marc Chagall. The church requests a voluntary contribution.

Please note: There are no toilets on this walk apart from trains and stations, and the only refreshments are in Tonbridge.

Lunch: picnic lunch only, in Pembury Churchyard.
