Southborough Common, situated towards the Tonbridge end of the town, is a conservation area where cricket has been played for more than 200 years. Southborough Cricket Club is still very much a vibrant community club.

If you're a runner or casual walker, the woodland area of the Southborough Common is a very beautiful space. The woodland area of Southborough Common, nestled behind St. Peters church, is a delightful broadleaf woodland featuring ancient and young trees sloping down to a stream.

Secondary, independent, preparatory and private schools can be found in both Tunbridge Wells and Tonbridge, while Southborough has its very own primary school. Draper Street is also within the catchment areas for the main highly regarded and sought after Tunbridge Wells Grammar Schools.
