| |
Legend has it that Sutton Valence was home to a Saxon battlefield, earning it the title 'Bloody Mountain'.
The village lies on top of a hill overlooking a flat landscape close to nearby Virgin Balloon Flights back-up site, Headcorn.
During the reign of King Henry III, the village was granted the right to hold a three-day market.
Sutton Valence is also famous for its Grammar School which now educates more than 400 boys and girls.
