Kings Hill is a modern mixed‑use development and electoral ward in Tonbridge and Malling, Kent, England, created largely on the site of the former RAF West Malling airfield. Perched on high ground with views over the Medway valley, it was masterplanned as a blend of housing, offices and open space, with a clearly laid‑out village centre, ponds, parks and a network of cycle paths.
Its business park has attracted technology, defence and professional firms, making the area popular with commuters to London and across Kent, while locally there are primary schools, shops, pubs and sports facilities that support a lively community. The settlement still nods to its aviation past through preserved features, street names and occasional community events such as markets and summer gatherings.
