Abbey Cross is a small farm village in West Kent. The population of Abbey Cross is roughly 301 residents according to data from 2011. However, the population is estimated to be much lower now as the village has become almost derelict in recent years.

In its prime, Abbey Cross was a cosey farmer village just bordering Tonbridge and Malling full of beautiful fields, pretty country cottages and beaming with great community spirit. While never among Kent's top tourist spots, any tourists who did visit had nothing but good things to say about it.

Abbey Cross was once home to a vibrant music scene and in 1968 was labeled "The birth place of British country music" by Rolling Stone magazine. In the late 1800s, Abbey Cross was also known for it's mesmerising street performers, being considered the centre of English folk music in that period. It is believed that Paul McCartney owns a house in Abbey Cross, however this little more than word of mouth and is yet to be proven as anything other than a rumour.
