About Headcorn

Headcorn, a village of enduring character, lies in the Maidstone district of Kent. It lies 12.0 km north-north-west of Tenterden (from Tenterden: bearing 338°T, OS grid TQ 833 442), and is situated north-north-west of Waterman Quarter village. The village green, a generous sweep of turf, often catches the late afternoon sun, lending a warm, honeyed glow to the surrounding cottages, their brickwork softened by the passage of years. Headcorn's roots are agricultural, a heritage still evident in the surrounding fields, which ripple like a green sea under the vast Kentish sky, and in the quiet hum of machinery from local farming enterprises. St. Peter and St. Paul's Church stands as a steadfast sentinel, its tower a familiar landmark against the horizon, a place where centuries of village life have unfolded. The air here carries a faint, earthy scent, a reminder of the fertile soil that has sustained Headcorn for generations, a subtle fragrance that mingles with the scent of blooming hedgerows in springtime.
