Egerton Kent Map

About Egerton

Egerton surveys a landscape where the ancient Downs gently unfurl, a place of quietude and enduring charm in Kent. It lies 11.2 km west-north-west of Ashford (from Ashford: bearing 297°T, OS grid TQ 907 474), and is situated east-north-east of Egerton Forstal village. The village green, a broad expanse of emerald, often catches the late afternoon sun, casting long, playful shadows that seem to whisper tales of centuries past. The architecture of Egerton speaks of a prosperous agricultural past, with many of its buildings showing the weathered beauty of Kentish ragstone and timber framing, their roofs a mosaic of weathered tiles. The air here carries the faint, earthy scent of cultivated fields, a constant reminder of the agricultural heart that beats beneath the surface of this tranquil corner of England. Egerton's church, St. James the Great, stands as a sentinel of stone, its spire a familiar landmark against the expansive sky, drawing the eye with the quiet dignity of ages.
