Kent 

The county of Kent is in the South East of England. It is known as the Garden of England because of its production of fruit, vegetables, and hops for making beer. Maidstone is the country town and other large towns are Dartford, Tunbridge Wells and of course Canterbury with its 14th Century cathedral, the oldest in the country and the seat of the Archbishop of Canterbury. Kent’s coast played its part in the history of the nation. Nelson’s flagship HMS Victory was built at Chatham Naval Dockyard. The White Cliffs of Dove, a totem for Britain during WWII, just as much as the British Bulldog and Britannia, were immortalized in the famous song.
