Introduction:

I was educated in North Wales and East Anglia and gained a BA Honours degree in History at University College London. I qualified as a Blue Badge Guide for the South East Region in 2015, receiving a special prize at the ceremony in Rochester Cathedral acknowledging my exceptional local knowledge.

My love of History is matched by a passion for Literature and I can lead you in the footsteps of poets and novelists with local connections. Many films and television programmes have been made in Kent, Sussex and Surrey and the locations and backdrops for filming often feature in my tours. Other areas of expertise include the Royal Family, art and theatre and I won't neglect to introduce you to the wonderful food and drink produced in these counties.

We are spoilt for choice with wonderful castles, gardens and stately homes to visit both on the magnificent coast and in the glorious countryside. I feel very fortunate to live in such a beautiful part of our country and would be so happy to be your enthusiastic and knowledgeable guide.
