The village sits astride the A28 road from Canterbury to Hastings. Queen Elizabeth I stopped in the village for a meal and left behind a pair of green damask shoes. In May 1944, just before D-Day, the Prime Ministers of four countries inspected the troops of Southern Command on the village playing fields. Great Dixter House and gardens form the western edge of the village.
