About Broad Street

Broad Street, a modest hamlet in Kent, offers a quiet corner of the Garden of England. It lies 7.4 km north-west of Hythe (from Hythe: bearing 321°T, OS grid TR 111 403), and is situated south-south-east of Brabourne village. The surrounding landscape, gently rolling farmland, often catches the low afternoon sun, casting long, soft shadows across the fields, a common sight in this part of the Ashford district. The air here carries a faint, earthy scent, a blend of rich soil and distant hops, a testament to the agricultural heritage of the region. Though small, Broad Street possesses a certain composure, a feeling of being settled into the land rather than imposed upon it. The lanes that weave through Broad Street are often fringed with hedgerows, a verdant and living boundary, suggesting a continuity of human presence that has been present for generations.
