Pillar box in the old part of Faversham
The town of Faversham is known in Kent as a harbour and market community but is also at the centre of the county's brewing industry — home to Shepherd Neame, a brewery, acquired from the last heir of the Shepherd family by Percy Beale Neame in the 1840s. Abbey Street and the centre of the town include a remarkable collection of original medieval houses. Perhaps as remarkable is that much of it was intended for demolition as recently as the 1960s, until the value of the buildings, now listed, was recognized and local people began a determined fight to restore and preserve the area.
