About The Event
Learn about Maidstone from its roots as a market town and brewing centre, to landmarks like the old Corn Exchange. Along the way, you’ll hear about the people and events that changed the streets you’re standing on: the running battles fought for the soul of Britain, the darker chapters like the Marian Martyrs, and the surprising details - why there are statues of dinosaurs? Just turn up, follow the route, and leave knowing whether you’re of Kent, Kentish, or a foreigner - with a new perspective on the town you thought you knew.
