Welcome to Buckland

Buckland Kent is a small village located in the county of Kent, England. It is situated on the outskirts of the town of Dover and is known for its picturesque countryside and historic landmarks. The village has a population of around 500 people and is a popular destination for tourists who are looking to explore the beauty of rural England.

One of the most notable landmarks in Buckland Kent is the St. Mary's Church, which dates back to the 12th century. The church is a fine example of Norman architecture and features a beautiful stained glass window that depicts scenes from the life of Christ. The church is also home to a number of historic artifacts, including a 14th-century font and a 17th-century pulpit.

Another popular attraction in Buckland Kent is the Buckland Mill, which is a working watermill that dates back to the 18th century. The mill is open to the public and visitors can see how flour is made using traditional methods. The mill also has a small museum that showcases the history of milling in the area and the importance of watermills in the development of rural communities in England.
