Description

The Pilgrims' Way To Canterbury from Winchester and London is a comprehensive guidebook for walkers and hikers. This historic pilgrimage route spans 136 miles from Winchester in Hampshire to Southwark Cathedral in London, with an optional spur to Rochester Cathedral.

Divided into two sections, the route can be completed comfortably over under a fortnight, taking in scenic countryside, characterful towns and villages, and historic churches. Detailed route descriptions are accompanied by 1:50,000 OS mapping, as well as advice on making the most of your trip and information on the historical background to the pilgrimage.

Accommodation listings and details of facilities and transport links can be found in the appendices. The Pilgrims' Way has featured in literature, drama and film, including Geoffrey Chaucer's famous Middle English work, The Canterbury Tales.
