Hackington is an area of Canterbury in Kent, England, also known (especially historically) as St Stephen's,[2] incorporating the northern part of the city,[3] as well as a semi-rural area to the north.
It is an ancient ecclesiastical parish, with the parish church dedicated to St Stephen.[2] It is also the name of a modern civil parish immediately north of Canterbury, the main community of which is Tyler Hill.[4] The ecclesiastical and civil parishes overlap geographically, but are not identical.
The original village of Hackington was centred on a village green at the current day location of St Stephen's Church Hackington, the Manwood Almshouses, and Ye Olde Beverlie public house,[2] a location still known as St Stephen's Green. Ye Olde Beverlie served as the clubhouse of the Berverley Cricket Club from its formation in 1835. The club changed its name in 1842 to become Kent County Cricket Club, now based at the St Lawrence Ground in Canterbury. The village of Hackington is today entirely subsumed into the northern suburbs of the city of Canterbury.
