Vision

Bradbourne offers the opportunity to create a new community.

The vision includes:

  • Delivering 1,600 new homes.
  • New local centre including a park, primary school and community facilities.
  • Strong walk/cycle links to nearby Barming Railway Station and surrounding shops and services.
  • A mix of housing types and sizes, including affordable housing.
  • New landscaped movement and ecology corridors.
  • Biodiverse network of green infrastructure.
  • Public open space that connects into the local context.
  • Development that is characterised by the existing setting.
  • Enhanced cycle and walking connections.
  • New highway infrastructure providing a continuous and alternative east-west connection between Allington and East Malling.

New school

The community at Bradbourne would be enhanced by a new primary school, which would be two-form entry, supporting families living at Bradbourne.

Link road

Located between Hermitage Lane and Kiln Barn Road, the proposals provide an opportunity to support the highways network with a link road. More information is provided on the Transport page of this website.
