About Elmstone - Planning Applications & Local Development
Elmstone is a quaint village located in East Kent, nestled between Canterbury and Sandwich, and is now part of the parish of Preston in the Dover district. Historically significant, it was recorded in the Domesday Book as 'Aelvetone' with a mere three households in 1086; by 1931, its population had grown to 117. Following a reorganisation in 1935, Elmstone was merged into Preston, with portions also allocated to Wingham, reflecting the area's evolving administrative boundaries. It sits within the Preston district.
