Little Chart Travel Guide

Tourist Guide

The ruins of St Mary’s Church at Little Chart in Kent, England. The church was dedicated to Saint Mary the Virgin and the Holy Rood having been built by the Normans in the 11th century. It was described as a handsome building of sandstone with two aisles, two chancels with a steeple at the west end. The steeple is said to have been built in Henry VII’s reign. The Victorians carried out major repairs in the 19th century with new windows, and oak panelling. Sadly, on 16th August 1944 during WW2, St Mary’s received a direct hit from a flying bomb known as a doodlebug. With only the damaged tower and parts of the chancel wall surviving, the bells were removed and stored. The remains still stand today.

Chart Court Oast, Pluckley Road, Little Chart, Kent It is said the red and green of the cowls were the racing colours of the Beatty family who owned the farm during WWII, when some oasts had their cowls painted black. The oast and neighbouring church were still hit by a doodlebug. Grade II listed http://www.imagesofengland.org.uk/details/default.aspx?id=181055

Value for money hotel, cheap prices for decent facilities. Rooms definitely felt a little dated but were clean and comfortable. We enjoyed using the leisure centre and the breakfast was ok for the money we paid. Parking was free for residents. Staff were all very friendly and helpful.
