About

The Chartham & Stone Street ward lies southwest of Canterbury's city centre, encompassing a mix of residential and rural landscapes. It includes the village of Chartham itself, with its historic church and housing clustered along the A28, and extends into the surrounding Kentish countryside. The area is defined by the River Stour, which meanders through water meadows and past old paper mills, shaping the local environment. Residential development varies from older village homes to newer estates, creating a transitional zone between the urban core and the open countryside.

A key feature is the alignment of the ancient Stone Street Roman road, which forms part of the ward's eastern boundary and lends the area its name. This historic route, running arrow-straight towards the city, underscores the ward's long-standing connection to Canterbury. The landscape includes agricultural fields, pockets of woodland, and the grounds of the former Chartham Mental Hospital, which has been redeveloped for housing. The presence of the railway line and the main road creates distinct transport corridors through the area.
