Plaxtol is a village and civil parish in the borough of Tonbridge and Malling in Kent, England.

The village is located around 5 miles (8 km) north of Tonbridge and the same distance east of Sevenoaks.

The name Plaxtol is believed to be derived from Old English words meaning "play area";[2] there used to be a large green in the middle of the village where children would play after attending church on a Sunday.

The River Bourne flows through the parish, and formerly powered three watermills in Plaxtol – Winfield Mill (corn), Longmill (corn) and Roughway Paper Mill.

The estate was then owned by the Saudi Arabian horse-breeder Prince Khalid ibn Abdullah until his death in 2021.
