Tonbridge
Tonbridge
Tonbridge is a market town at the heart of the Weald of Kent, an area of superb natural beauty. Despite the town being pronounced as Tunbridge, the spelling was changed in 1870 from Tunbridge to Tonbridge due to confusion with Tunbridge Wells, situated nearby.
In the surrounding countryside can be found stately homes such as Chartwell House, home of Winston Churchill, or Bateman's, home of writer Rudyard Kipling, the grandeur of Bodiam Castle, the Agricultural Museum and activity centres like Bowles.
