About

Eastry Rural ward encompasses a collection of villages and hamlets set within expansive farmland to the west of Dover. The settlement pattern is dispersed, with communities like Eastry itself, Woodnesborough, and Ash centred around historic church buildings and greens. The landscape is predominantly agricultural, characterised by large arable fields and orchards that define the open views and quiet country lanes connecting the settlements.

The area's history is deeply rooted in its agricultural economy and ancient status. Eastry was once a royal manor of the Saxon kings of Kent, a past reflected in the scale of its parish church. A specific local feature is the presence of several traditional oast houses, their distinctive conical roofs dotting the farmland, which historically served the hop-drying industry integral to Kent's heritage.
