Groombridge Place Manor House

Highlight • Historical Site

Groombridge is a village of about 1600 inhabitants on the border between Kent and East Sussex in England. The nearest major city is Royal Tunbridge Wells, about 4.5 miles away.

The main part of the village ("New Groombridge") is located in Parish Withyham in the Wealden district in East Sussex. In Neu Groombridge is a primary school with the Church of St. Thomas, part of the Chichester Diocese of the Church of England. There is a general store, a bakery, a post office, a hairdressing salon, a car dealership and a public house.

The older part of the village ("Old Groombridge") is located in Parish Speldhurst in the Borough of Tunbridge Wells in Kent and consists mainly of the Groombridge Place estate. St. John's Church, part of the Rochester diocese, is in Alt Groombridge. There is also an inn, but no shops.

The border between the two counties East Sussex and Kent and thus between old and new Groombridge forms the River Grom, which flows further west from the right into the River Medway.

Gorgeous in summer, a firm path (not paved so muddy after rain) covered in trees that follows the path of an old railway line and now exclusively for bikes, hikers and horses. Great with children and virtually flat

Broadwater Warren Quiet Forest Road

Highlight (Segment) • Forest

Well surfaced and almost traffic-free Road going from High Rocks pub to Groombridge village (or vice versa) through Broadwater Warren - former unmanaged conifer plantation that is being gradually reverted to lowland heathland and the native broadleaf forest (the pines were thinned and allowed to stand).
