I am staying in Ashford overnight before a site visit for work tomorrow. According to ChatGPT:
Ashford, Kent, is known for several key features and attractions:
Transport Hub High-Speed Rail: Ashford International Station offers Eurostar services (historically) and high-speed trains to London St Pancras in under 40 minutes.
Road Links: It is a major transport hub with the M20 motorway, providing direct access to London and the Channel Tunnel.
Best for getting out of it.
