Larkfield

Larkfield ward sits in the northern part of the Tonbridge and Malling borough, characterised by residential neighbourhoods and local commercial centres. The area includes the distinct communities of New Hythe and Larkfield itself, with housing ranging from post-war developments to more modern estates. Its landscape is primarily suburban, with the main A228 road providing a key transport route through the area, connecting to wider Kent.

A notable local feature is the presence of the New Hythe Lakes, a series of flooded former gravel pits now used for recreation and angling. The ward contains several industrial and business parks, particularly around New Hythe, which provide local employment. Green spaces are interspersed throughout, including playing fields and areas bordering the River Medway to the south, offering walking routes.
