Edenbridge is a town and civil parish in the Sevenoaks area of Kent, England. Its name derives from Old English Eadhelmsbrigge (definition “Eadhelm’s Bridge”). It is located on the Kent/ Surrey verge on the top floodplain of the River Medway and gives its name to the latter’s tributary, the River Eden. The town has a population of around 9,000. Edenbridge is twinned with Mont-Saint-Aignan in France. The bypass that was constructed in the very early 2000s to alleviate traffic pressure on the old, narrow High Street is called Mont St Aignan Way. There are two banks in the community, a post office next to the church and a number of major retail chains. Despite being a relatively village, Edenbridge flaunts its own health center – The Edenbridge War Memorial Hospital. Originally a cottage health center built to look after soldiers returning from The First World War, an objective built building was developed to the south of the community in 1931. With an Out Patients Department, Physical rehabilitation centers as well as a Minor Injuries Unit the hospital is a major part of the fabric of the community. Recently the health center has actually been faced with closure often times, on each event it has been conserved by regional campaigners as well as townspeople, that see the health center as an essential part of the neighborhood.
