About

Chilham is a town of about 1,595 people in south east. (Village in Kent, England.) According to Wikipedia: "Chilham is a village and civil parish in the Borough of Ashford in Kent, England. It sits on the north bank of the Great Stour around 5+1⁄2 miles to the southwest of Canterbury and seven miles northeast of Ashford. It is a mostly agricultural parish, with settlement clustered around Chilham village centre, which is next to the Grade I-listed Chilham Castle. Well-preserved roads and mostly residential listed buildings in the centre have led to its use as a location in television and film. Also lying within the civil parish is the smaller linear settlement of Shottenden, which is situated 1+1⁄2 miles west of Chilham."
