Welcome to Sole Street

Sole Street is a small village located in the county of Kent, England. It is situated between the towns of Gravesend and Dartford and is known for its picturesque countryside and historic buildings. The village has a population of around 1,500 people and is a popular destination for tourists who are looking to escape the hustle and bustle of city life.

One of the most notable landmarks in Sole Street is the St. Michael and All Angels Church. This beautiful church dates back to the 12th century and is a Grade II listed building. It features stunning stained glass windows and a bell tower that can be seen from miles around. The church is still in use today and is a popular venue for weddings and other special events.

Another popular attraction in Sole Street is the Sole Street House. This historic building was once the home of the famous English poet, John Milton. Today, it is a private residence and is not open to the public. However, visitors can still admire the beautiful architecture and learn about the history of the house from the outside. Overall, Sole Street is a charming village that is steeped in history and is well worth a visit for anyone who is interested in English heritage and culture.
