Although now just a part of Saltwood, near Hythe, Sandling Park was once a large and wealthy estate. The house was built in the 1790s and demolished in 1945 and replaced by a newer, smaller house. What does remain, are the two gate lodges - one on the road between Newingreen and Hythe has been completely subsumed by nature and can't be seen under the covering of ivy.
The other, on the A20 from Newingreen to Postling marks the entrance to Sandling Park, and is at its' most stunning in Autumn.
The park and gardens are open to the public on limited days.
