Until the civic boundary changes were brought into effect in 2004, the electoral ward had broadly mirrored the ecclesiastical parish of Davington.

The ridge runs south-west to north-east, losing height as it approaches the marshes and sea.

Its topography is similar to the ridge upon which Bysing Wood stands further to the west of the area, near Oare.

These include Brett's (quarry firm), GIST (business logistics company) and Shepherd Neame Brewery also has a warehouse, as well as in the town centre of Faversham.

Davington church is a prominent and much-loved local feature, which stands on top of a ridge above Stonebridge Pond.

Also included within the parish is the Faversham Angling Club Lakes and nearby Oare Gunpowder Works (now a country park).
