Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Lenham village square – a typical timbered house Lenham is a most attractive Kent village. It lies in the shadow of an escarpment rising 300 feet to the chalk Downs in the north, and has the source of the Great Stour river to the south watering its cornfields and orchards. “It has one of Kent’s lovely old squares … an ancient market place. A row of limes throws its shadow across the square on which timbered houses and quaint fronted shops look down.” (‘The King’s England’, Arthur Mee).
