Map of the UK

Wickhambreaux is a small rural village and civil parish in the district of Canterbury, in Kent, England. Tucked into the Stour valley a few miles east of Canterbury, it sits among arable farmland and hedged fields and retains a strong village character with thatched cottages, timber-framed houses and a conservation-minded centre.

The place has clear medieval roots and several listed buildings, including an historic parish church and a former manor house with moated features, reflecting its long agricultural past. Today the economy is a mix of farming and people who commute into nearby towns, while a small but active community keeps local traditions, village events and rural services alive.
