Lower Upnor to the Hoo Sailing Barge Graveyard
Saxon Shore Way的点评
点评：We walked the section of the Saxon Shore way from Lower Upnor to the aptly named Hoo Sailing Barge Graveyard whilst on a circular walk out and back from Upnor village. We started our walk on a Sunday morning from the (free) car park at the top of Upnor High Street and joined the Saxon Shoreway at Lower Upnor.
#The walk takes the visitor along the north bank of the River Medway and along stretches of rough and uneven shingle on the riverbank so wear some suitable footwear and also check the tide times if you don't want to get wet feet. Note that the walk has no public toilets but there are commercial premises where it is possible to but refreshments in both Lower Upnor and Hoo Marina.
Leaving the picturesque Lower Upnor promenade. behind, the walk passes a figurehead for the Arethusa sailing ship which was once moored here.
Passing a small marina the walk leaves the paved area and moves onto the beach where it is possible to get good views across the River to St. Marys Island.
A second World war pillbox may be found on the shore tilting forwards and the soil underneath has been washed away by years of tides. Inside can be disorientating due to the sloping floor but is relatively well preserved though there is an accumulation of rubbish growing by the year.
Continuing along the shore the walker next comes across the red brick remains of Cookham Wood Fort, built in 1669 after the Dutch raid on Chatham Dockyard in 1667. Unfortunately, there is no information here for the casual visitor but the weathered brickwork does give some good photographic possibilities.
Continuing on the walk once more reaches more level ground at Port St Werburgh and here you will find an eclectic collection of house boats and other river craft.
The footpath is fairly well signposted as it threads its way beside and then through the boatyards and at one stage is in a fenced off cordon between industrial units and private boatyards, re emerging once more onto the river at Stargate Marina.
We continued a short way further to the Hoo Sailing Barge Graveyard. Here you will find a sad collection barges and other river craft in varying stages of decay, on the day of our visit sitting in the mud at low tide.
From this point the path way continues towards the Kingsnorth Power station but we turned back to return to Upnor village vis a very nice café near to Hoo Marina for a cup of tea.
Not the most scenic of walks but the are points of interest and also photographic opportunities along the way. Probably better to undertake in the summer months when there will be more traffic on the river and wildlife to spot.

翻译：我们沿着撒克逊海岸的路段从下厄普诺步行到名副其实的胡帆船墓地，同时从厄普诺村庄来回走一圈。周日早上，我们从阿普诺高街顶部的（免费）停车场开始步行，并加入了下阿普诺的撒克逊海岸。
#游客沿着梅德韦河北岸步行，沿着河岸上崎岖不平的鹅卵石延伸，因此请穿上合适的鞋子，如果您不想弄湿脚，还要检查潮汐时间。请注意，这条步道没有公共厕所，但在下阿普诺 (Lower Upnor) 和胡码头 (Hoo Marina) 都有商业场所，可以提供茶点。
离开风景如画的下普诺海滨长廊。后面，步道经过了曾经停泊于此的阿雷图萨 (Arethusa) 帆船的船首雕像。
经过一个小码头，步道离开铺好的区域，进入海滩，在那里可以欣赏到河对岸圣玛丽岛的美景。
海岸上可能会发现一个二战时期的碉堡，它向前倾斜，下面的土壤已被多年的潮汐冲走。由于倾斜的地板，内部可能会让人迷失方向，但尽管垃圾逐年堆积，但保存得相对较好。
继续沿着海岸行走，步行者接下来会看到库克姆木堡 (Cookham Wood Fort) 的红砖遗迹，该堡建于 1669 年，是在 1667 年荷兰人袭击查塔姆造船厂后建造的。不幸的是，这里没有为临时游客提供的任何信息，但风化的砖墙确实给了一些好处。摄影的可能性。
继续步行再次到达圣维尔堡港 (Port St Werburgh) 的平坦地面，在这里您会发现各种船屋和其他河流船只。
这条人行道的路标相当清晰，它蜿蜒在造船厂旁边，然后穿过造船厂，一度处于工业单位和私人造船厂之间的围栏警戒线中，在星门码头再次出现在河上。
我们继续前行一小段路，到达胡帆船墓地。在这里，您会发现一些令人悲伤的收藏驳船和其他处于不同腐烂阶段的河流船只，在我们参观的那天，它们正处于退潮的泥浆中。
从这里开始，小路继续通往 Kingsnorth 发电站，但我们返回 Upnor 村，在 Hoo Marina 附近的一家非常好的咖啡馆喝了一杯茶。
虽然不是风景最优美的步道，但沿途有许多景点和摄影机会。可能最好在夏季进行，因为那时河上的交通会更多，野生动物也会更多。
