Charing Archbishop's Palace

Charing's greatest historical asset is 'The Archbishop's Palace', in the grounds of which stands a private residence, 'Palace Farm', just off the Market Place. To the right of the Farmhouse itself, is a barn, which was originally the Great Hall.

The Spitafields Historic Buildings Trust purchased the palace in 2023 with the aim of repairing it and eventually selling it. They are keeping the local community updated with occasional on-site meetings and newsletters, which can be viewed via the links below:
