About Rabbit's Cross

Rabbit's Cross, a small hamlet in Kent, breathes the quiet air of the South East region. It lies 8.7 km south-south-east of Maidstone (from Maidstone: bearing 164°T, OS grid TQ 785 473), and is situated north-west of Hawkenbury village. The land hereabouts unfolds in gentle slopes, catching the sun's diffuse gold on fields that have been worked for generations, their hedgerows a thick, green embroidery against the sky. Though the original purpose of its naming remains a whisper lost to the passage of years, Rabbit's Cross is now a quiet collection of homes, a place where the distant hum of traffic from larger thoroughfares seems to recede, leaving only the chirping chorus of unseen birds. The very quality of the light, soft and often veiled, seems to lend a certain contemplative mood to the landscape, as if the earth itself were sighing contentedly. Life in Rabbit's Cross moves with the languid grace of the season's turning, a slow unfolding rather than a hurried bustle.
