Calverley New Town

Calverley new town is part of Tunbridge Wells. It was designed and built by Decimus Burton ( Link ), between 1827 and 1842. It was designed to rival the Georgian development of Bath. The development includes Calverley Park (all the buildings on this road are Grade II* listed), a development of large Georgian Villas, Calverley Crescent (similar to the Bath Crescent), Calverley Grounds (now a public park)(Link ) and various other outlying streets. The whole area is part of a conservation area and many of the buildings are Grade II listed.
