Medway bend

The map
About this Rochester map poster
Rochester stands on the south bank of the River Medway in Kent, at a point where a crossing has existed since Roman times. On a map, the river makes a broad loop around the city. The old High Street, following the line of the Roman road, runs from the bridge through the historic center. Chatham and Strood spread out beyond it.
Two major landmarks sit side by side near the bridge: the Norman castle with its tall square keep and the cathedral, one of the oldest in England. On the map, the castle grounds and the cathedral precinct form a green, open area next to the dense line of the High Street. Walls and old gates mark parts of the medieval boundary.
Rochester is closely associated with Charles Dickens, who lived nearby and used the city in several works. A Rochester map poster shows the Medway's wide curve, the bridges and the compact old town on the bank. The river gives the composition its strong main shape, and the straight High Street adds a clear line through the center.
