There is a footpath and steps here - joining end of Merryfields to the footpath alongside Broomhill Park

The Chequers is not a pub anymore - it has been converted to flats.

I don't know how to edit the layers. The heron trail (regional cycle route 18) does not route along this part of the road. See this link http://www.kent.gov.uk/KCC.ExploreKent.Web.Sites.Public/Default.aspx#?&lyrs=17,18,14&xmin=572369&xmax=578264&ymin=173837&ymax=177261&searchString=The Heron Trail - Higham to Upnor on the Hoo Peninsula&searchChoice=PromotedRoute

Thanks
