Map of the UK

Waltham is a small, largely rural parish just to the north of Canterbury in Kent, England. The village is clustered around its parish church and a handful of historic farms and cottages, giving a quiet, village feel while remaining within easy reach of the city for shops and rail links.

Historically agricultural, the area still shows its farming roots in orchards and arable fields, but it now mixes long-standing local families with commuters and countryside enthusiasts. Community life is modest and locally focused, with the surrounding lanes and footpaths popular with walkers exploring the Kent countryside and occasional listed buildings hinting at a longer heritage.
