Tonbridge (/ ˈ t ʌ n b r ɪ dʒ / TUN-brij) (historic spelling Tunbridge) is a market town in Kent, England, on the River Medway, 4 miles (6 km) north of Royal Tunbridge Wells, 12 miles (19 km) south west of Maidstone and 29 miles (47 km) south east of London.
Tonbridge occupies an extensive site of about 150 acres in north Tonbridge. The current main buildings of the School date from the second half of the nineteenth century, but there has been much further building in more recent years, including the magnificent restoration, completed in 1995, of the Edwardian Chapel, which had been severely damaged by fire.
Early history. Tonbridge is a market town in the county of Kent. First mentioned in the Doomsday book it was a relatively large settlement with 25 villagers, nine smallholders and seven slaves. At that time, the town was known as Tonebriga. This perhaps refers to the many bridges built over the Medway at the time.
