*************
Headcorn is a village and civil parish in the borough of Maidstone in Kent, England. The parish is located on the floodplain of the River Beult south east of Maidstone.
The village is eight miles (13 km) from the county town of Maidstone, on the A274 road to Tenterden. In addition to the parish church, dedicated to saints Peter and Paul, there are also churches and chapels for the Methodist, Baptist and Roman Catholic congregations.
There is a small airfield located nearby, where there is an aviation museum and a parachuting centre. Headcorn Parachute Club is the only skydiving club in Kent[3] and is home to national champions and world-record holders.[citation needed]
Headcorn railway station is on the South Eastern Main Line between London and Dover. It was opened on 31 August 1842. On 1 December the same year, the South Eastern Railway opened the second section of its main line onward to Ashford. By 1844, trains were running from London to Dover. The line here is the longest straight stretch of line in the United Kingdom.[citation needed]
