Hunton is a civil parish and village near the town of Maidstone in Kent, England.

"[4] In the 1870s, Hunton was described like this: The village stands near the river Beult, 3 miles E by S of Yalding r. station, and 4½ SW by S of Maidstone; was once a market town; and has a post office under Staplehurst.

Hunton Church of England Primary School, which was built in 1963 and located at Bishops Lane,[6] is small and rural and was rated Good by Ofsted in 2016.

[10] The village has a ‘Pop Up’ shop, selling produce either grown or made by Hunton residents.

The shop consists of a small stall, which is mobile and can change venue, although it tends to be held in the Village Club.

There are a few farms in the area that sell fresh produce and monthly markets are held in Yalding and East Farleigh.

Milebush Farm Pick Your Own is in the area just west of Hunton which has a fruit and vegetable shop.

[16] In 1871 the Liberal politician Henry Campbell-Bannerman inherited the estate of Hunton Lodge or Court Lodge (now Hunton Court)[17] from his wife's uncle, Henry Bannerman,[18] but did not take possession until 1894 on the death of an aunt who was using the mansion.

[19] In the meantime, Campbell-Bannerman and his wife used other homes as a country residence, including the nearby house at Gennings Park, living there until 1887.

The service courts are highly picturesque, with the stables and coach house in lovely pink and black chequer brick".

Today, the club is run by volunteers to hold events for the village and serves drinks.

[6] Transport in Hunton consists of a bus route through the village, the 26 and 26A Nu-Venture buses travel to either Maidstone or Goudhurst.
