Chilham is a mostly agricultural village and parish in the English county of Kent. Well-preserved roads and mostly residential listed buildings in its centre have led to its use as a location in television and film.
Chilham and the surrounding area was one of the locations for much of Powell and Pressburger’s 1944 film A Canterbury Tale. In 1965 it was used for part of the filming of The Amorous Adventures of Moll Flanders starring Kim Novak, Leo McKern and Angela Lansbury, and it was also used as a location for the BBC’s 2009 adaptation of Jane Austen’s novel Emma. The village and the castle featured heavily in a fake snow-bound episode of Agatha Christie’s Poirot called Hercule Poirot’s Christmas starring David Suchet. The village was made over to sunnier times for The Moving Finger, a mystery featuring Agatha Christie’s other famous sleuth Miss Jane Marple, portrayed by Geraldine McEwan.
