Whitfield Kent Map

About Whitfield

Whitfield, a place where the chalk downs begin their gentle rise, offers a quiet vista across the Kentish countryside. It lies 3.3 km north-north-west of Dover (from Dover: bearing 336°T, OS grid TR 301 446), and is situated west of Guston village. The air here often carries the faint, clean scent of cultivated fields, a subtle perfume that speaks of the land’s enduring fertility. Whitfield's modest presence belies its proximity to the ancient port of Dover, a constant reminder of the ceaseless tides of history that have washed over these shores. The houses, many of them of a pleasing, unassuming brick, seem to absorb the soft, diffused light that often bathes the South East, lending them a quiet dignity. A palpable sense of continuity pervades Whitfield, as if the very stones of its oldest dwellings whisper tales of generations past.
