Wichling (otherwise Wychling[1]) is a village and civil parish within the local government district of Maidstone, in England.

It lies near the top of the ridge of the North Downs and consists mainly of isolated farms and houses: the population is therefore small in number.

There was ploughed land of around 400 acres (160 ha) (half a "sulung"), there was enough woodland for 5 pigs and the church is mentioned.

[a] The parish church dedicated to St Margaret was begun in the 12th century and restored 1882–3 by Clarke.

[4][5] The church has two bells set for swing chiming by lever, the earliest of which is from 1430 by John Walgrave of London.
