Petham is a small village and civil parish in the North Downs, five miles south of Canterbury in Kent, South East England.
The village church is All Saints Church, which was built in the 13th century but suffered from a fire in 1922 and had to be reconstructed. The village hall has recently been rebuilt next to Marble pond on ground which has been known to flood in previous times.
Petham is famous for its beautiful surrounding landscapes and "chocolate box" style cottages.
A resident of Petham is known as a 'Pethamster'
