Water Mill, Wickhambreux - Kent Location: five miles due East of Canterbury, just to the North of the A257 Canterbury to Sandwich Road. - A really sleepy but pretty little Kent village with a triangular tree-lined green at its centre, also known locally as Wickham. On the West side of the green is a tall white clap-board mill with a working water wheel located on the Lesser (or Little) Stour - Wickambreaux was one of the Kent Estates of Princess Joan Plantagenet, the original "Fair Maid of Kent" and she visited the village on at least one occasion in 1381. Princess Joan was the Grand-daughter of Edward I, the the wife of Edward, The Black Prince, (her second marriage after her first husband died), and the Mother of Richard II. - There is an old country "counting-out" rhyme about this village and its neighbouring village of Ickham which goes as follows: Ickham, pickham, Penny Wickham, Cockaloram jay, Eggs, butter, cheese, bread, Hick, stick, stone dead! - 固opFoto
