For local shopping and amenities, the picturesque historic village of Aylesford is around 2 miles and is said to be one of the oldest continually occupied sites in England. It possesses a 14th century ragstone bridge which is probably one of the most photographed and painted landscape features in Kent and there is no mistaking the antiquity of the houses overlooking the river Medway on both sides of the bridge. The village is built around a square with a range of Public Houses including the smallest, and possibly the oldest pub thought to date back to 1106. In Aylesford's High Street is the splendid medieval Friary built by the Carmelites around the middle of the 13th century and restored in 1949. The Museum of Kent Life and Cobtree Manor Park and Golf Course are nearby and there are a range of sporting and leisure facilities in the County town of Maidstone. For road commuting there is easy access to the M2 and M20 motorways connecting to the M25 as well as fast rail commuting links to central London from nearby train stations in Maidstone, Rochester as well as Ebbsfleet International station which provides an 18 min. service into London St Pancras as well to Europe.
