The St Peter's Village Tour group offers four free award winning guided walks around the historic village and churchyard of St Peters, Broadstairs Kent. The Tours are arranged by a team of over one hundred dedicated volunteers.
Attend our flagship award winning Village Tour and meet many costumed characters from past centuries along with some surprises along the way! During the tour you will see the flint built church and find out a little more about its long history. You will hear of conditions in the workhouse, the Newbolts' breakfast concerts for hundreds of fashionable people, the tower used in the Napoleonic wars, famous (and infamous) local residents and our ancient seat of local government for the area.
The tour is conducted in 5 groups of 8 visitors setting off at five minute intervals and covers less than a mile of flat walking, but does involve standing for a number of 5 minute presentations. It includes a break for tea or coffee (although no break on evening tours). You are advised to allow two and a half hours for your tour. In inclement weather we provide a dramatic Village Tour routine inside the Church.
Access for visitors with disabilities. Children are very welcome on our tour. We would however suggest a minimum age of 10 years to fully appreciate the experience.
At the end of the tour you are invited to contribute towards our costs.
After the tour light lunches and cream teas can be made available in the Red Lion, opposite the Church, by calling Kim on 01843 600895 where a 10 per cent discount is offered for tour attendees.
Refreshment on the tour are optional at a cost of £1.
All tours are conducted in English only.
