Walk · 45 min · free · the medieval gate and the river gardens

The Westgate is the largest medieval gate still standing in England, a 14th-century twin-towered gatehouse at the end of the high street. Beside it, the Westgate Gardens run down along the River Stour, with flower beds, an enormous plane tree and benches: the place to sit with a sandwich from The Goods Shed, five minutes away. From there, the walk continues along the bank. Note: boat trips on the river are not running in 2026.
