Englands most famous cathedral city, Canterbury sits in one of the most attractive corners of rural Kent and has been welcoming visitors for over 2000 years. There is evidence of Bronze Age and neolithic settlement around the city. The city name evolved during Saxon and Norman times and translates from Old English as the fortress of the men of Kent. Canterbury is easy to reach by road, rail, air and sea. The River Great Stour runs along the city but is only navigable from Sandwich to Fordwich. With part of the city designated by UNESCO as a World Heritage Site, Canterbury today is a delightful mixture of architecture, history, arts and culture, museums, shops of every description, visitor attractions and good restaurants and pubs. Famous Canterbury offsping include poet Christopher Marlowe made famous by his version of Dr Faustus, actor Orlando Bloom and artist Mary Tourtel, nee Caldwell, creator of the cartoon Rupert Bear
