Cranbrook, Market town in Kent, England
Cranbrook spreads across the Weald region with medieval streets, historic buildings, and the prominent Union Mill standing against the skyline.
The town became a central hub for cloth weaving in the 14th century when Edward III brought Flemish weavers to establish the local textile industry.
St Dunstan's Church, known as the Cathedral of the Weald, contains a clock mechanism that provided the original design template for London's Big Ben.
The High Street maintains numerous independent shops, butchers, and tea rooms, while serving as the main commercial center for surrounding villages.
The Union Mill from 1814 remains functional as one of the largest smock mills in England, with its white wooden structure reaching 72 feet in height.
