About Old Wives Lees

Old Wives Lees rests quietly in the Ashford district of Kent. It lies 8.0 km west-south-west of Canterbury (from Canterbury: bearing 250°T, OS grid TR 074 549), and is situated north-north-east of Chilham village. The gentle rise of the land here offers glimpses of rolling farmland, where hedgerows stitch together fields under a wide, often changeable sky. The houses, a modest collection of brick and flint, seem to huddle together as if sharing a common, understated history, their gardens often blooming with the quiet tenacity of roses and lavender. A sense of enduring peace pervades Old Wives Lees, a place where the present is content to follow the established patterns of the past. The air here can carry the faint, earthy scent of ploughed fields after a spring shower, a reminder of the agricultural heart that beats softly beneath the surface.
