Join us for a walk around Faversham, Kent, UK. We explore Faversham town centre on market day.
Faversham is a market town in Kent, England, 48 miles from London and 10 miles from Canterbury, next to the Swale, a strip of sea separating mainland Kent from the Isle of Sheppey in the Thames Estuary.
Faversham Market takes place on Tuesdays, Fridays and Saturdays every week, selling a range of local produce, household items, clothes, trinkets, fresh plants and flowers, fruit and vegetables, collectibles and other interesting bits and pieces. Located in the heart of Faversham’s historic town centre, with it’s stilted Guildhall, town pump and medieval buildings as a backdrop, Faversham Market is the oldest market in Kent.
Faversham is home to Britain’s Oldest Brewer – Shepherd Neame, which has been brewing beer since 1698 (however, history suggests that the drink was produced in Faversham for several centuries before that). The Brewery has a Visitors Centre and offers guided tours which include an exciting tasting session.
The Shepherd Neame Brewery, founded in 1698, is a significant major employer. Shepherd Neame is an English independent brewery which has been based in the market town of Faversham, Kent, for over 300 years. While 1698 is the brewery’s official established date, town records show that commercial brewing has occurred on the site since 1573. Since the brewery’s formation back in the 16th century, ownership has passed in unbroken succession through five families. The brewery produces a range of cask ales and filtered beers. Production is around 180,000 brewers’ barrels a year. It has 320 pubs and hotels in South East England, predominantly in Kent and London. The company exports to 44 countries including India, Sweden, Italy, Brazil and Canada.
Thanks for watching! We hope you enjoy this Faversham walk.
