Canterbury: Passing the Cherry Tree


Since first going to Canterbury in the mid-1990s, I've always had a soft spot for the Cherry Tree pub, which, as the picture above shows, has been open since 1372.

If I remember correctly, the pub has a nice, strong cider on tap, but the name escapes me.

Remember doing strawberry-picking and lettuce-planting one summer just outside Canterbury, and listening to 'Eton Rifles' by the Jam on the jukebox all the time.

Hope the Cherry Tree and all the other Canterbury pubs survive the coronavirus crisis.
