Herne Bay Festival 2026
Friday July 24 to Sunday August 16

Historical Herne Bay

Pettman House Hanover Square, Herne Bay CT6 5NY

FREE EVENT

The Herne Bay Historical Society are providing a  booklet to take you on a self guided historical tour of Herne Bay

The proposal for each event is to set up a history display at Pettman House, with lots of photos, documents and information about the town and the main landmarks in Herne Bay for people to view and ask any questions. Each group of attendees will also be given a booklet which will take them on a self guided walk around the old part of Herne Bay with photographs and information about each of the landmarks on the tour. The booklets will be theirs to take away, so they can do the tour during the morning and ask any questions to the hbhrs team at Pettman House on their return, or do the walk at their leisure if preferred. The aim is for the walking tour to last around 45 to 60 minutes.
If anybody would like additional information on the event they can contact us through the website or by e-mail on info@hbhrs.org.
