Ditton is a large village near Maidstone, the County town of Kent. The first mention of Ditton is in the Domesday Book with an entry dated 1086. At that time the village had in total only 36 dwellings. In April 2007 there were 3624 electors registered for Ditton while the population in mid-2003 was 4700 residents.
The name Ditton comes from the Saxon word "Dictune" meaning "Village on the Dyke". This is the result of Bradbourne Stream that passes through the village.
