Looks like that is the last bus to Hawkhurst BLH, so since it's not 23:00 and there are no "visible" stops in the vicinity, looks like it's a 15 minute walk (0.8 mile unfortunately, I know I'm slightly bending the rules!) walk to Aylesford station, arriving at 19:31 on Saturday.

A few things.

Firstly, a simple walk to a bus stop or train station is not permitted as a move.

Secondly, there is, from nearby Victoria Hall, a 2200 departure on the 5 towards Maidstone.

[bnsf734]

Not a lot happening in Westgate-on-Sea at this time so we have little option but to try and grab some sleep before leaving on the first train - the 0720 Southeastern service to Whitstable, arriving there at 0739 on Sunday morning.

[James Wake]

The lure of the Isle of Wight is tempting, but there is a departure from the Hard before the first boat, so I use the 0340 National Express service 203, alighting at Winchester, Broadway Guildhall at 0455 on Monday morning.

 

[Xenophon PCDGS]

Following a request for clarification on the rules on visiting outlying islands, through the use of domestic ferry services, such as the Isle of Wight and the Isle of Mull... please note that this practice is acceptable, however it is not intended that the game gets tied up on these islands for great periods of time...

Indeed but of course I have to use a departure within two hours if there is one available correct? Otherwise I'd have caught the 0515 ferry to Ryde.
