Eastry is a small rural village and civil parish in the district of Dover, in east Kent, England, set among the gently rolling farmland of the North Downs fringe. The village centre has a mix of medieval and timber-framed buildings and a traditional parish church, reflecting its long history as an agricultural market community with roots in the medieval period.
Today Eastry combines farming and local trades with a number of residents who commute to nearby towns such as Sandwich, Deal and Canterbury. Its proximity to the coast, nature reserves around Sandwich Bay and the walking routes of the North Downs make it popular with walkers and people seeking a quiet village life within easy reach of larger centres. Community life remains active around the village hall, local pubs and seasonal events.
