Hawkenbury, Tunbridge Wells

Hawkenbury is a small village area located in the south east of Royal Tunbridge Wells, Kent, England.

Hawkenbury was settled before Tunbridge Wells itself was founded in the 17th century, and at one time fell within the parish of Frant, which was divided between Kent and Sussex.

Beyond agriculture, the residents were employed in the Brickfields, lying due east of present-day Maryland Road.

South of Brickfields were a plethora of now-vanished farm buildings, the remains of which can still be traced from the footpath off Chieveley Drive.

Prior to Brexit in 2020, it was represented by the South East England constituency for the European Union parliament.

The Tunbridge Wells Land Registry offices were located in Hawkenbury until their closure in June 2011 [ 1 ]
