This is another location along the Wheels of Time trail. I visited here once many years ago, so it was nice to return and take a look around. However, I have to say that my daughter was not very impressed with the museum, which meant I didn't get to spend as much time there as I had hoped. The good thing is that the tickets are valid for a year. The Royal Engineers Museum is located in Gillingham, Kent. It’s quite interesting, and you can easily spend a few hours here on a family day out—just keep in mind that there is a small entry fee. The museum serves as a large archive of various aspects of military history.
Chiddingstone Castle
Date : October 2024
Chiddingstone Castle is worth a visit! I have to say, it's a lovely little castle where you can easily spend a few hours exploring. We went late in the day but still had a great time looking around. it also part of the wheels got time trail
The castle is Grade II listed and features a great hall, a White Rose room, a Victorian kitchen, a servants' hall, and a four-poster bedroom. Over the years, the site has hosted live music events, Christmas events, and much more. .
I have visited Slough Fort before, but this time I returned to complete the Wheels of Time trail because we are collecting badges for my daughter, and Slough Fort was part of it. I must say it was really nice to go back and see the fort again, especially since they have done more work on it since my last visit. I noticed many improvements and also discovered things I had never seen before.
Our guide was very informative as well.
I learned that Slough Fort is a small fort located in Allhallows, Kent. It was built in 1867 in a D shape. By 1912, all the guns had been removed from the fort, but during World War I, it was used as a command post. The fort was decommissioned in 1920 and was sold off in 1929.
From the 1960s, the fort was used as stables, but from late 2012 to early 2013, it received partial restoration funded by the camp, bringing it to its current state.
