Maidstone's Combined Court Centre marked its 40th anniversary recently.

The riverside building was officially opened by Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II in October 1984.

To mark the anniversary, Maidstone Council produced a short documentary, available to watch on YouTube.

Wrap up warm and have a wander along the river today.

One of the scenic paths is between East Farleigh and Barming bridges.

Along the path, there is an abundance of autumn colours to take in and the sun even made an appearance or two.
