The Slade History Project

A project is underway to build a unique collection of the history of The Slade area in Tonbridge. Jacqui Wyatt and a team of enthusiasts will be spending the next few months collecting memories, photographs and records connected with the area.

Can you help so it can be documented for the future?
Do you or your family remember the Slade area before 1977?
Did you visit the Cattle Market or go to the Slade or Bank Street School?
Did you use the Whitefriars Social Club in Lansdowne Road?
Did you work at the Market or for Caffyns, Ongleys or any other of the local businesses?
