Gun Green is a small, leafy pocket of neighbourhood and open space on the outskirts of Tunbridge Wells in Kent, England. It sits amid residential streets and functions as a quiet local green used for dog‑walking and informal gatherings, with easy access into the town centre and surrounding suburbs.
The name Gun Green is locally thought to reflect older activity in the area - perhaps militia musters or small‑scale metalworking - though today it mainly contributes to the town’s mix of Victorian suburbia and green corridors, supporting the residential character and everyday economy of Tunbridge Wells.
