Cartham - St Mary

Chartham is a village just about 4 km south west of Canterbury. An archaeological survey found evidence of Romano-British and Anglo-Saxon habitation.

St Mary's Church was probably constructed between 1285 and circa 1305, with a later tower of the fourteenth century. There is stylistic evidence to suggest the involvement of Michael of Canterbury, the master mason at Canterbury Cathedral.
The church has a very interesting Gothic tracery window
