Woodchurch has almost as many pubs as people! Well, it's got a few anyway. The village surrounds all 4 sides of a huge green open space, in one corner of which, is the old village pump. It sits about 6 miles from Ashford and is overlooked by the beautiful windmill, which commands extensive views over the Walland marshes to the English Channel coast. It is a fine example of a Kentish smock mill and was originally one of a pair of windmills standing on this site, known locally as The Twins. The mill is open throughout the summer and is accessible via a footpath that passes between the village pubs.
Woodchurch is renowned for its Rare Breed Centre, which stands far enough outside the village centre, down a road which bypasses the village centre, not to disturb its quietness.
