Reculver Country Park

The ruins at Reculver are managed by English Heritage but are free to visit. Originally a Roman fort built against Saxon raids. Later an Anglo-Saxon monastary before becoming a parish church in the 12th Century. Fine views and lovely walks along the coast. There is a local pub for refreshments too!

A view of Reculver Towers, the perfect place to park up and cycle. It's centred mid way between Whitstable and Margate.

While looking for inspiration for my book “ my little casa” on Amazon I stumbled across this historically important structure!
