Welcome to The White Horse Chilham
Off the A28 near Canterbury, narrow lanes climb up through Kentish hills to open out unexpectedly into Chilham's village square, one of Kent's showpieces. Chilham is used to visitors; for 350 years, after Thomas a Becket's murder, travellers used to pass through on the Pilgrims' Way from Winchester and London to his shrine in Canterbury Cathedral. Today the North Downs Way passes through the town.
Best appreciated out of season, its square is a delightfully haphazard mix of gabled, half-timbered houses, shops and inns dating from the late Middle Ages. At either end of the square are the church and the castle. St. Mary's stands behind the 15th century White Horse Inn, built in flint and stone and dominated by its perpendicular west tower.
Open 11am Everyday, All day.
We also have live music on every first Sunday of the month, plus
The White Horse Quiz Night on the last Wednesday of every month.
