About Small Hythe

The quiet character of Small Hythe speaks of a long agricultural heritage. It lies 3.3 km south-south-east of Tenterden (from Tenterden: bearing 162°T, OS grid TQ 893 301), and is situated north of Wittersham village. Historically, Small Hythe was a significant port, with evidence suggesting it was once a bustling centre for shipbuilding and trade, though the landscape has since shifted, leaving it inland. Today, the hamlet retains a peaceful, rural charm, with its economy primarily focused on farming and the surrounding countryside. The ancient parish church of St. John the Baptist, a Grade I listed building, stands as a testament to Small Hythe's enduring past, its flint walls and tower offering a picturesque focal point. The gentle undulations of the Kentish landscape provide a serene backdrop to Small Hythe, a place where history quietly coexists with the present.
