Nestled in the steep-sided valley of the River Dour, Temple Ewell is a village defined by its landscape and its long connection to the Knights Templar, who held the manor here in the 12th century. The village is set within the Kent Downs Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, with the chalk grasslands of Kearsney Abbey and Russell Gardens right on the doorstep, providing a natural buffer from the nearby port of Dover. It remains a practical spot for those needing to travel; the village has its own railway station, Kearsney, which offers direct links to London Victoria and Canterbury, and the A2 is easily accessible just at the top of the hill. Life here tends to revolve around the core of the village near the primary school and the 11th-century church of St Peter and St Paul, where the valley floor levels out before rising sharply toward Lydden and the surrounding downland.
