Our Beautiful Borough

During July Ashford Borough Council called out to local amateur photographers to send in their images of hidden countryside gems discovered during lockdown walks across the borough.  There was an overwhelming number of responses and sadly not all could be published in the Ashford For You magazine, so here's some of them.  They will also be featured on Instagram @ashfordbc and @visitashfordtenterden.  

Don't forget if you're out and about in the borough tag us in your photos and we can feature them on our social media platforms.
