About

Bridge ward is located in the northern part of Dartford, positioned between the River Darenth to the west and the main railway line to the east. The area is primarily residential, characterised by a mix of housing types from Victorian terraces to more modern developments. Its streets are arranged in a grid-like pattern, providing a straightforward layout. The presence of the railway line creates a distinct boundary, with several road bridges crossing the tracks to connect neighbourhoods.

The ward contains several local parks and green spaces, including the grounds of the former Joyce Green Hospital. A key feature is the Darenth Country Park, which offers walking paths along the river and through woodland areas. The area is served by local shops and schools, with community life centred around these facilities. The proximity to the river and the historical layers of land use contribute to its local character.
