Starting shortly this month there will be an occasional diversion on the Pilgrims’ Way above Charing in Kent.

The route does not pass through the village which is downhill to the south.

Just before the turn off it will be necessary to divert right down to the main road where there is a pavement. The road curves to cross the Pilgrims’ Way a little further on.

There is a turning off the road to Charing.

The closure, which is expected to be on and off during the summer, is to enable work to take place on improving the path.
