About Kentford

Kentford rests in the gentle sweep of West Suffolk, a place where the sky seems to stretch further and the air holds a peculiar stillness. It lies 7.4 km east-north-east of Newmarket (from Newmarket: bearing 64°T, OS grid TL 709 667), and is situated south-east of Kennett village. The land here, a rich loam, has long been given over to agriculture, its fields a patchwork of greens and golds under a sky that can shift from the palest azure to a bruised, dramatic grey within the space of an hour. A quiet stream, perhaps once a more boisterous watercourse, threads its way through the surrounding countryside, reflecting the stoic faces of ancient trees that stand sentinel. The houses of Kentford, a mixture of flint and brick, seem to huddle together as if sharing secrets from generations past, their gardens often bursting with a riot of colour, a quiet rebellion against the muted tones of the wider landscape. There is a subtle sense of endurance here, a quiet dignity that has weathered the passing of seasons and the slow march of time.
