Wingham is a picturesque village nestled in the Dover District of Kent, just a few miles north of Canterbury. With a population of 1,754 according to the 2021 Census, it boasts a rich tapestry of history—from its Roman road origins along the A257 to its medieval college and listed buildings. 

At Canterbury Pointing Experts, we understand that Wingham’s unique clay soils and varied architecture—from flint-and-brick cottages to grand manor houses—demand tailored brick pointing Wingham Canterbury and professional brick pointing Wingham Canterbury solutions.

The Character of Wingham

A settlement here dates back to the Stone Age, but it was the Romans who first formalised the village along the route from Richborough to London. The Domesday Book later records Wingham manor under the Archbishop of Canterbury, and by 1286 Archbishop Peckham had founded a college whose remnants still shape the village core. 

Today, Wingham balances its pastoral setting—evident in the Nailbourne stream meadows—with village amenities like The Dog Inn, a Grade II listed pub, and the nearby Wingham Wildlife Park, home to exotic species including tigers and penguins.

Climate & Local Conditions

Kent’s climate is classed as oceanic, featuring mild winters with average January lows around 1.8 °C and summers peaking near 22 °C. Annual rainfall averages approximately 728 mm, spread fairly evenly throughout the year, making brickwork prone to moisture ingress and freeze–thaw damage. 

Combined with clay-rich subsoil, these conditions mean that mortar joints often erode over time, necessitating timely brick repointing Kent to prevent damp and structural issues.
