Langley is a small rural village and civil parish in the borough of Maidstone in Kent, England. Tucked into the rolling Kentish countryside it sits among farmland, orchards and hedged lanes, offering a quiet contrast to the larger towns nearby.
The settlement has a long history with the feel of a traditional English village: a small parish church, a few historic cottages and farm buildings, and community life centred on local gatherings. Historically agriculture and hop growing shaped the local economy; today it remains largely residential with working farms, some commuters to Maidstone, and plenty of countryside appeal for walkers and cyclists.
