Paddock Wood Ex-Councillor Ray Steward This is no longer the official page of Paddock Wood Town Council but I will still post about council meetings, news and information about local events.

You can contact me here as before. Opinions expressed will be my own. Paddock Wood is comparatively new and owes its existence to the railway, which arrived in 1842. By 1851 a sizeable village had grown and by 1900 Paddock Wood was the hub for a network of branch lines throughout the Weald. It was the railway that brought the thousands of hop-pickers to the area and soon Paddock Wood was becoming the centre for the hop growing industry. Ideally located for London and the South Coast, Paddock Wood has become a busy commuter town. There is a diverse range of commerce and light industry, and it is the centre for the distribution of fruit and vegetables to and from Europe. It also continues to be a centre for hop growing. As a small rural town Paddock Wood has much to offer including an interesting range of local shops, good schools and excellent sports facilities.
