This fascinating selection of photographs traces some of the many ways in which Tunbridge Wells has changed and developed over the last century
Disgusted of Tunbridge Wells'' is a well worn cliche, however, it does encapsulate the genteel character of this Kentish spa. Before the popularity of sea bathing, holidaymakers gathered here to drink the waters for medicinal purposes. The town grew to accommodate visitors with smart hotels and attractive terraces of Georgian and Victorian houses. The area''s sandstone geology is revealed at Wellington and High Rocks and there is also evidence of Roman occupation in the town''s roots. Today a low crime rate, relatively full employment, attractive open spaces, good transport links to London and a vibrant retail sector have created a contented community. Changes to the townscape over the past century have been mostly sympathetic, but still very important. The photographs in this book provide a fleeting view of Tunbridge Wells through time, and provide the reader with a fascinating tour of this Kentish spa''s eclectic past and present.
