Flower Delivery to Bredhurst with Clare Florist

Bredhurst, a village that is part of the larger borough of Maidstone, is located in County Kent in the southeast of England. The village is one of the older sites in the county, with beginnings in the Neolithic times.

Bredhurst is well-known for its rich, lush soil that provides fertile fields for agricultural undertakings, as well as plentiful woodlands that provide lumber to England. This long tradition continues today in the village where it is often noted by locals that Bredhurst contains more livestock than people!

The village’s church, St. Peter’s Church, dates back to the 13th century and is in the down land flint style. During the 16th century Reformation, the church lost many of its treasured ceremonial items such as a chalice and altar plate, but a small, copper communion plate was recovered in 1907. This became known as the famous Bredhurst paten and dates from 1180-1260. It is one of four known examples that survived and as such is part of the sacred silver collection at the Victoria & Albert Museum in London.

The community of Bredhurst is proud of its long history including being the home to many evacuated British children during the World War II bombings in London. The village holds many events to commemorate its past, most notably their annual May Day celebration held on the first Saturday of May every year. The event brings together the students from the Bredhurst Church of England primary school and has been a longstanding tradition since before the Tudor period. In addition to Maypole dancing and crowning the May Queen, there are several pageants, processions, and parades.
