About Fencing in Tonbridge
Tonbridge in Kent grew up around a crossing point on the River Medway, with Tonbridge Castle built shortly after the Norman Conquest to guard the river, its stone keep still standing in the town centre today after 900 years. The town later benefited from river improvements in the eighteenth century and the arrival of the railway in 1842, both boosting local trade.
