East Farleigh Conservation Area Appraisal Survey

The significance of the East Farleigh Conservation Areas are closely tied to its relationship with the Medway River and the village's development during the 18th century, particularly with the rise of hop farming.

At the core of the Lower Road Conservation Area, around the church, historic remnants of the medieval village layout are still visible, including deep plots. Additionally, there are small scale domestic dwellings, such as workers' cottages, which highlight the contrasting character between the medieval period and the 18th century growth.

In Dean Street, the main core of buildings are still preserved intact, with a progressive growth perceptible but still maintaining a strong hamlet character.

As a result of its architectural significance, there is a particularly high number of Listed Buildings located within the area.
