Introduction
The photograph on this page of Land Use Change by Colin Smith as part of the Geograph project.
The Geograph project started in 2005 with the aim of publishing, organising and preserving representative images for every square kilometre of Great Britain, Ireland and the Isle of Man.
There are currently over 7.5m images from over 14,400 individuals and you can help contribute to the project by visiting https://www.geograph.org.uk

The OS 50K map for this area south-east of Farleigh Green still shows orchards, not the current grasslands. There are many other similar changes in this market gardening area south of maidstone.
