Overview of Faversham

The town of Faversham is located East of Gatwick airport a distance of 57 miles that would take around 1 hour by taxi via the M25, M26 and M2. Faversham is a market town located in the county of Kent. It is also the birthplace of the explosives industry in England.

Faversham was established as a settlement before the Roman conquest. It was recorded in the Domesday Book as Favreshant. In 1148 Faversham Abbey was established in Faversham by King Stephen, who with his consort Matilda of Boulogne, and his son, Eustace, the Earl of Boulogne was buried there. Sir Thomas Culpeper was granted Faversham Abbey by Henry VIII of England during the Dissolution of the Monasteries about 1536. The abbey was demolished directly after the dissolution and much of its masonry taken to Calais to reinforce that town's defences against French interests. Among the few surviving buildings of Faversham Abbey are the two Barns at Abbey Farm. The smaller (Minor) Barn dates from 1425 and the larger (Major) Barn dates from 1476. In the farmyard of which they form part there are other listed buildings, including Abbey Farmhouse, part of which dates from the 14th century, and a small building which is thought to have been the Abbot s stable. Also surviving is the Abbey Guest House, on the east side of the Outer Gateway of the Abbey; now known as Arden's House. This house, now a private residence in Abbey Street, was the location of the infamous murder of Thomas Arden in 1551. A shipyard was established in Faversham by James Pollock & Sons (Shipbuilders) in 1916 at the request of Lord Fisher, the First Lord of The Admiralty. Faversham already had a tradition of shipbuilding, and it soon became a major contributor to markets throughout the world. Vessels such as the Molliette and the Violette both constructed of concrete were the forerunners to over 1200 ships built and launched from Faversham between 1916 and 1969.

Abbey Street and the centre of Faversham include a remarkable collection of original medieval houses, which must be viewed on any trip to the town. Brewery Tours can also be arranged at Shepherd Neame Brewery, which is Britains oldest brewery, founded in Faversham in 1698. As well as the Hop fields you can also find Brogdale in Faversham, its the Home of the National Fruit Collection, located on the edge of town. It houses the World s largest collection of fruit trees and plants and also provides a great day out with demonstrations, tastings and fruit displays of the seasonal varieties. Also located in the town are Maison Dieu, an English Heritage property, originating as a 13th-century wayside hospital, this flint and timber-framed building now displays Roman artefacts from nearby sites and Chart Gunpowder Mills, the oldest of their kind in the world, powder from which was used at the battles of Trafalgar and Waterloo.
