Yorkletts rests upon a modest rise where the Kentish landscape softens into a quiet patchwork of fields and woodland. It lies 2.2 miles south-south-west of Whitstable (from Whitstable: bearing 207°T, OS grid TR 092 633), and is situated north-east of Dargate village. The air here holds a crispness that suggests the proximity of the coast, carrying a saline clarity that brushes against the greenery of the nearby Ellenden Wood SSSI. This ancient woodland, sprawling across ninety-one hectares, provides a dense, emerald backdrop to the domestic gardens and lanes of Yorkletts. To the east, the gentle depression of Fox's Cross Bottom gathers the morning mist, holding the dew long after the sun has climbed above the horizon. The ground beneath these lanes retains a memory of industry, as the presence of medieval salterns nearby marks the historical toil of those who harvested salt from the tidal flats. Such remnants of human labour persist as subtle mounds in the earth, quiet witnesses to the long duration of life in this corner of the county. Yorkletts remains a place where the horizon feels expansive, defined by the slow drift of clouds over the open fields and the persistent, rhythmic quiet of the countryside.
