We cannot fight this alone. If you are able to offer your time & assistance with behind-the-scenes tasks, there is something for everyone. Together we will prevent Marden from becoming the next Milton Keynes.
Get InvolvedOur previous survey has now closed – many thanks to all who answered. Please keep checking back for updates on our next set of surveys.
Answer NowMarden residents overwhelmingly do not want nor need this development. Marden is an historic rural Kentish village and needs to be protected from encroachment and urbanisation. We don’t want ‘another Milton Keynes’ on our doorstep.
We aren’t opposed to all development – villages and towns should grow organically over time. But doubling the size of Marden village will spoil the entire Low Weald area and place undue pressure on surrounding towns & villages.
Our village has already seen over 500 new houses built since 2015 alone. Join us in our fight to protect the Low Weald before it is ruined forever.
What right have they to spoil the lives of so many people for greed?
Moving here has made a huge difference to our health
We moved to Marden to bring our baby up in the countryside.
Please help us protect Marden and Low Weald National Character Area
