Frittenden is a village and civil parish in the Tunbridge Wells District of Kent, England.
Roman remains have been found near an old Jutish track which ran through the area, along which pigs were driven into the forest of Andreadsweald.
[citation needed] Thomas Cromwell was given land in the village during the reign of King Henry VIII.
Rumours of the Frittenden Treacle Mines were started by locals in the 1930s at the expense of gullible Londoners who would tour the area in their newly acquired motor cars, eager to visit the source of much of the world's treacle.
[2] The rector of the parish church from 1900 to 1916 was Rupert Edward Inglis who was a former England rugby international.
