Linton, KentLinton is a village on one of the roads leading south out of Maidstone in Kent. The steepness of the hill through it is explained because of its position on the south slope of the Greensand ridge. The village has a population of about 500. According to the reference quoted below "The 13th century church of St Nicholas contains an interesting and varied collection of monuments, including some by EH Baily, who sculpted the figure of Nelson in Trafalgar Square". In terms of 'what there is to do in Linton' the choice is quite scant. There is one pub 'The Bull' which is opposite the church. There is a children's playground off a lane near the bottom of the hill which can be found at the end of a path just above the turning for Wheelers Lane. Other options for entertainment really are go for a walk or a bike ride. It's a lovely place though - its in a conservation area and most of the village has great views ofer the Weald of Kent. Charming and peaceful is probably how most residents would describe it. External links Notes on the village
