‘‘You used to run past that bit because it stunk so much!’’
Anne Clement

1992 - The Botany

Now the site of Waitrose, this original branch of the town’s Iceland was located in The Botany. Depending on your Tonbridge vintage you may remember this as Bejam’s, The Ritz cinema or even when this part of town was home to the towns tannery - a smell that you are said to never forget! Listen to Anne Clement share her memories from this much changed part of Tonbridge, and Scott Wishart recall memories of Tonbridge High Street in the 90’s.
