About

Loose & Linton ward encompasses the southern residential fringes of Maidstone, characterised by its mix of housing and proximity to the Kent countryside. The area includes the villages of Loose and Linton, which maintain distinct identities despite their growth. The ward is defined by the Loose Stream, which flows through a steep-sided valley known as the Loose Valley. This natural feature creates a green corridor with public footpaths, separating and shaping the communities.

Residential streets climb from the valley, offering views across the surrounding landscape. The area is primarily residential with local shops and schools serving the communities. The Loose Valley conservation area protects the historic setting, including old mill ponds and weirs from its industrial past. This combination of village character within the borough and the pronounced topography gives the ward its particular identity.
