Knockholt, Kent Weather
About Knockholt, Kent
Knockholt commands a high, airy ridge where the air feels thinner and the light sharper than in the sheltered valleys below. It lies 3.4 miles north-north-east of Westerham (from Westerham: bearing 26°T, OS grid TQ 468 589), and is situated west-south-west of Knockholt Pound village. The landscape here is defined by a chalky austerity, where the soil holds the winter rain in deep, hidden flint beds. To the south, the slopes of Brasted Hill rise with a quiet, muscular intensity that dictates the local horizon. Knockholt remains a place of long, sweeping vistas, where the wind carries the scent of dry grass across the open plateaus. Nearby, the grand, formal lines of Chevening offer a stark contrast to the rougher, unmanicured hedgerows that border the narrow lanes. There is a peculiar, brittle beauty in the way the sunlight strikes the flint walls of the older cottages, turning the stone into something resembling pale, translucent bone. Life in Knockholt moves according to the turning of the seasons, dictated by the relentless exposure to the elements that define this elevated reach of Kent.
