Location: Charing is a small sought after village in the Ashford District of Kent, situated at the foot of the North Downs. The village is sited on the Pilgrims' Way from London to Canterbury and is still surrounded by farmland, but the good transport links have also led to the area becoming a popular commuter village.
Charing station has connecting services to London St Pancras via Ashford International or London Victoria station is approximately 1 hour and 20 minutes. The village has a strong community life and the locals organise regular fairs, community and charity events. On the High Street and surrounding streets you will find a wide variety of shops, restaurants and services.
Charing Church of England Primary School is just over a mile away. The Red Lion, a family run 16th Century country pub is within walking distance and is a relaxed, homely place to savour exceptional ales, wines and spirits, plus a delicious menu of home-cooked country style food.
Charing’s most famous building is the Archbishop's Palace, which lies by the church and was an ancient possession of the Archbishop of Canterbury. The palace was an important building in the diocese of Canterbury and counted amongst its guests King Henry VIII. It has been a farmhouse for the last 300 years. In 2004, the palace was an unsuccessful contestant in the BBC television programme, Restoration, where several potential restoration projects throughout the UK competed for funds. The church is said to contain the stone on which John the Baptist was beheaded.
