Disraeli was MP for Maidstone but gave it up for another seat because it was costing him too much to keep the electors bribed.

The Royalists captured the town from Parliament and Fairfax's men retook it, fighting street to street.

The City Museum has a remarkable collection of Japanese art.

I found (and bought) a copy of [livejournal.com profile] catvalente's Girl Who Circumnavigated Fairyland in one of the charity shops.

Nice town, Maidstone.

Did you visit the carriage museum?

We tried. It said it was closed for the winter.
