Dargate Kent Map

About Dargate

Dargate rests in Kent, a quiet corner of the Swale district. It lies 5.6 km south-south-west of Whitstable (from Whitstable: bearing 210°T, OS grid TR 080 615), and is situated east-north-east of Hernhill village. The lanes here, often bordered by hedgerows thick with hawthorn, lead through fields that seem to hold the soft, diffused light of an ever-present sea breeze, even miles inland. The earth itself, a rich loam, yields crops that have sustained this landscape for generations, its fertility a quiet testament to the patient work of husbandry. A sense of enduring stillness pervades Dargate, a gentle pause in the wider rush of the South East, where the air carries the faint, sweet scent of ripening apples and the distant murmur of the coast.
