Ash: Attractions and more...
Formerly the village of Ash was situated on the main road between Sandwich and Canterbury so, large numbers of tourists have passed through the village in the past. The list of historical tourists also include the Kings and Queens of England. The road has now shifted away from the village which has acquired a calm and pleasant atmosphere.
