About Kennington

Kennington breathes the quietude of Kentish countryside, a place where the land gently yields to human habitation. It lies 2.7 km north-east of Ashford (from Ashford: bearing 34°T, OS grid TR 023 450), and is situated south of Boughton Lees village. The long, low-slung houses of Kennington often present their brick faces to the sun, catching the pale light that filters through the scattered oak and ash trees. The village green, a modest patch of well-trodden grass, serves as the heart of Kennington, a place where local life unfolds at a pace dictated by the seasons rather than the clock. Beyond the houses, fields stretch out, their hedgerows a subtle, living architecture, promising the bounty of the land. The distant hum of traffic from the A20 is a faint murmur, a reminder of the wider world that Kennington itself seems to hold at a gentle distance.
