Wouldham is a small village located in Kent, England, situated on the banks of the River Medway. It has a population of just over 1,000 people and is located in the Borough of Tunbridge Wells.

The name “Wouldham” is believed to have come from the Old English “wudu-ham”, which translates as “wooden homestead”. The village is mentioned in the Domesday Book of 1086 and was part of the Archbishop of Canterbury's estates at the time.

The village has a long and varied history, with evidence of Iron Age and Roman settlements discovered in the area. It is also believed that a Saxon burial ground existed here in the 6th century. The village was a major port on the River Medway during the Saxon period and was used to transport goods to and from London.

The Church of St Mary Magdalene is the most iconic structure in the village, having stood since the 13th century. It was damaged during the Great Storm of 1703 and was rebuilt in 1707. The church is home to a number of interesting features, including a 15th century font, a 15th century bell, and a rare 18th century communion plate.

The village also boasts a unique clock tower, which was built in 1744 and is one of only a few of its kind in the country. The clock, which is still in operation today, was originally used to chime the hours and was a favourite of local villagers.

The village has a number of other attractions, including the Wouldham Caves, which are a series of underground caverns and tunnels, believed to have been used for smuggling in the 18th century. The caves are open to visitors in the summer months and are home to a variety of wildlife, including bats and badgers.

The village also has a number of historic pubs, including The Kings Head and The White Horse, both of which date back to the 18th century. The Kings Head is particularly well known for its traditional Kentish ales.

Wouldham is a great place to visit if you're looking for a peaceful and tranquil environment. It is a great place to explore the history and culture of Kent and to experience some of the unique attractions the village has to offer.
