Public Spaces Protection Orders (PSPOs) are intended to deal with a particular nuisance or problem in a specific area that is detrimental to the local community’s quality of life, by imposing conditions on the use of that area. We are seeking residents’ views and experiences to help assess whether a ‘Dogs on Leads’ order is needed to ensure The Grove park in Royal Tunbridge Wells remains a safe and welcoming space for all users.

Surrender of Leases
From: Cabinet - Thursday, 24th July, 2025 6.00 pm - July 24, 2025
The intention of TWBC to dispose of a number of property assets requires the surrender of the leases between the Council and Tunbridge Wells Property Holdings that exist for those properties to ensure they are sold unencumbered of other interests. As and when vacant possession is gained for each property and a sale agreed then the lease is no longer required then steps can be taken to surrender that lease. This will be for the following properties: Apartments 10,13,18 and 23 Grove Hill House, Grove Hill Road, Tunbridge Wells, 25 Monson Road, Tunbridge Wells and Cemetery Lodge, Benhall Mill Road, Tunbridge Wells.
