About High Brooms, Kent
High Brooms is a suburb of Royal Tunbridge Wells in Kent, England, situated within the civil parish of Southborough. The area is historically notable for its clay excavation industry, with the High Brooms Brick & Tile Company operating between 1885 and 1968, shaping much of the local landscape and economy during that period.
The suburb is served by High Brooms railway station, providing direct train connections to London and Hastings. This accessibility links the area to larger urban centres while maintaining its distinct suburban character.
Though primarily residential today, High Brooms retains its industrial heritage through the legacy of brick and tile production, which played a significant role in the development of the wider Tunbridge Wells area.
