Map of the UK

The area around Chartham & Stone Street sits on the southern fringe of Canterbury in Kent, England, occupying the gentle vale of the River Stour beneath the North Downs. It’s a semi-rural mix of village streets and farmland with good road and rail links - the nearby A28 and local train services make commuting into Canterbury and Ashford straightforward.

Chartham retains a recognisable village heart, a medieval parish church and a long-standing riverside paper mill that has shaped local employment, while Stone Street feels more hamlet-like and takes its name from an ancient route. Together the communities combine farming, commuter households and village amenities such as pubs and halls, giving a quiet but socially engaged character with a palpable sense of local history.
