St Mary the virgin - Smeeth - Ashford

 St Mary the Virgin 


                                      Date : March | Location Smeet - ashford | delmoised - No 

This beautiful little church is open to the public and is tucked away in a small town called Smeeth. There are several other churches to visit in the area. My daughter and I spent some time there taking photos and exploring. She was full of questions, which was lovely to see.


It is noted that this charming church is one of six churches in the "Stour Down Parish." The church was built using flint sourced from a local quarry, and its origins date back to Norman times. A chapel was added in the 13th century, and the porch was constructed in the 15th century. The church tower was restored in 1881.
