Riverhead is a village and civil parish on the northern edge of Sevenoaks in Kent, England. It sits at the head of the River Darent where the springline emerges from the chalk of the North Downs, giving a mix of wooded slopes and green valleys; the locality grew as a small market and coaching settlement serving nearby estates such as Knole Park and areas like Sevenoaks Common.
Today Riverhead blends commuter suburbia with a strong village feel, featuring local shops, schools and community groups while still offering footpaths into the downs and pockets of countryside; many residents travel into London via the nearby stations in Sevenoaks, but the parish retains historical character and a quieter, semi-rural social life.
