Medway_Gap
The Medway Gap is a topographic feature in Kent, England.
It was created when the prehistoric River Medway cut roughly south to north through the line of chalk hills[1] now known as the North Downs;[2] other rivers such as the Darent and the Stour have similar features.
Its past significance as a means of travel is indicated by the prehistoric Medway megaliths in the area. Today the Medway Valley railway line and the A228 road both run through the valley, connecting Tonbridge, West Malling and the Medway Towns. At the north end of the Medway Gap, the river is crossed by the M2 motorway and High Speed 1 viaducts.
