Guide to Sandwich, Kent, England: an Historic Town in the UK

The Barbican, Toll Bridge and River Stour

Once the major port in England but now two miles from the sea, Sandwich is arguably one of the best preserved medieval towns in the UK. Within the old town walls the many period houses, with their characteristic "Kent peg" roofs, are laid out in a street plan which has changed little since the creation of the Domesday book in 1086.
