The Pilgrim Trail: London to Canterbury, Part 2

Day One: London to Rochester (29 miles)

We started our pilgrimage in Bankside, at the site of the Tabard Inn, where Chaucer set the opening of his Canterbury Tales. Unfortunately, the Tabard Inn was one of those ancient inns that was demolished in earlier centuries, but the site is commemorated, and here we marked the “official” start of our walk.
