Charing’s most famous building is the Archbishop's Palace, which lies by the church and was an ancient possession of the Archbishop of Canterbury. The palace was an important building in the diocese of Canterbury and counted amongst its guests King Henry VIII. It has been a farmhouse for the last 300 years. In 2004, the palace was an unsuccessful contestant in the BBC television programme, Restoration, where several potential restoration projects throughout the UK competed for funds. The church is said to contain the stone on which John the Baptist was beheaded.
