1. For this survey of Minmar one I walked from Margate to Minster. The roads on this end (Margate) of the route are reasonably busy, but all have pavement. There are dropped kerbs for this section. This junction (Canterbury Road, Maynard Avenue, George V Avenue) is very busy and there is no Pelican/ Zebra crossing here, it is not dangerous but you should take care when crossing. 1.25 km from start — 12 May 2024
2. This gate is (as far as I can tell) always closed and locked. It is possible to walk around it through the field on the right hand side. 2.98 km from start — 12 May 2024
3. This is an example of the verge along the Minster Road/Shottendane Road section (here facing back in the direction of Margate). It is not a real path and the ground is both uneven and muddy. I would say that walking 'on road' here is not a practical alternative due to the quantity and speed of traffic. So the verge is the only safe option. 3.24 km from start — 12 May 2024
4. This is the first bridlegate you come across. There is a small gap at the side which you can walk through if you wish. The path through the field beyond the gate is typical for much of the middle section of the walk - unpaved, uneven and muddy when wet. 3.73 km from start — 12 May 2024
5. This is the second bridlegate. No gap here, you must pass through the gate to continue. 4.74 km from start — 12 May 2024
6. Footpath through the fields at Acol. Crops change with the seasons, but the chance of having to walk straight through something (in this photo rape seed) is fairly high. 5.19 km from start — 12 May 2024
7. Coming to the end of the route just before entering Minster village. Busy roads and roundabouts. There is a shared pavement (pedestrian/bicycle) and a pelican crossing so you can get across safely. 6.98 km from start — 12 May 2024
