Well Hill is a small
rural hamlet within the civil parish of Shoreham in the Sevenoaks District of Kent, England. It lies 3 miles south east of Orpington & 3.5 miles south of Swanley, adjacent to the Kent border with Greater London
.
Well Hill
The hamlet consists of several small cross roads on minor country roads which are mostly without
street lighting or pavement
and some are single track for a length and lined with trees. There are many detached houses with fairly large gardens, scattered with trees, a public house and a small church; further out there are several farms with many fields, and larger, denser woodland.
Well Hill is sometimes referred to as a village but usually a
electoral ward Crockenhill and Well Hill Ward; however the settlement is within the Shoreham
Parish not Crockenhill Parish.
