 GO BRITANNIA! TRAVEL GUIDE: Chilham - Britannia's Magical History Tour
Standing at opposite ends of the square are Chilham Castle, the not-entirely-accurate name for a manor house built by Sir Dudley Digges in 1616, and the parish church of St. Mary, an attractive 15th century structure made almost entirely of flint.
The Chilham Castle grounds actually did accommodate a real castle, at one time, but all that remains of Henry II's original Norman structure is a ruined keep.
When the present house was built in the early 17th century, the 300 acre grounds were laid out (some say by Capability Brown, others by John Tradescant) to include terraced lawns and rose gardens.
