Offham is a small village and civil parish in the borough of Tonbridge and Malling, in rural Kent, England. It sits in the patchwork of orchards and hop fields that give the county its “Garden of England” reputation and lies a short drive from market towns such as West Malling and Tonbridge, making it popular with people who commute into London while wanting a village lifestyle.
The community has historic roots stretching back to medieval times and retains a number of older buildings and farmsteads, reflecting its agricultural past; today the local economy mixes farming with small businesses and a commuter population. Social life tends to revolve around village institutions and occasional local events, and the surrounding Kentish countryside makes Offham attractive to walkers and anyone interested in rural heritage.
