Parrot- I’m unsure about their food, however Parrot is a must for a drink, for the mere alternative to check out the thousand-yr-old building. Ginge - one of the best place for a coffee in Canterbury this place is effortlessly cool and minimalist. Come here for a flat white or your favorite espresso for a break while exploring. If the weather is nice, you might stop for a swim or a paddle, earlier than making your manner back to the buzzy town. If you’re a foodie like me you’ll find yourself spoiled for alternative in this seaside city. Whitstable is famed for its contemporary fish and seafood, specifically oysters. On my last journey we picked up half a dozen for £10 from The Forge, and sat on the pebbles slurping them!

Harewood Highway - Riccarton Highway - named after the suburb of Riccarton. I believe that the Harewood Highway of Riccarton was once related to today’s Harewood Highway of Bishopdale as these two roads have the identical history. Whately Highway - Victoria Avenue - named after the Archbishop of Dublin Bed and breakfast in Canterbury Canterbury Association member Richard Whately. Renamed to Victoria Avenue in 1877 when 61 residents petitioned for the identify change. Waterloo Terrace - Cambridge Terrace - the part of street from the Oxford on the Avon to the Centennial Leisure Pools (each demolished because of quake damage) appeared on early maps as Waterloo Terrace. The Zig Zag - Sumner Street, Lyttelton. Bishop Avenue - Greers Street (the part between Harewood and Northcote Roads) As there were already a Bishop Road in each Papanui and St Albans, it was getting a bit confusing. The Bishop and Greers families both farmed in the world.

To spherical off a beautiful weekend in Canterbury, head to the Canterbury Roman Museum. The museum is inside the remains of a Roman courtyard home and accommodates a Roman pavement which was only found when the city was bombed throughout WW2. The museum documents the history of the Romans in Kent and shows loads of excavated artefacts from Canterbury and its surroundings. I had no concept that Kent had a lot Roman historical past. Though small, this museum was a fantastic little find, and one among Canterbury’s best activities if it’s raining! Adult tickets cost £10.50, and baby tickets value £5.35.Cease 7 - House!
