Sorry folks that it's taken me so long to get back here.

Camping is laid on at the Museum of Rural Life, behind the Malta Inn on Forstal Road, Aylesford, and I have been informed that the fee is £8 per night per vehicle. Since I am sure they are not offering free camping to hikers, I take this to mean that they are charging per tent or per caravan, rather than per person.

Parking in town is very difficult, and often requires some patience getting in to the car parks. Chancing single yellow lines is not advised as the wardens are both swift and merciless. There are indicator boards on all approach roads giving the current space free in all car parks.
