Introduction

Sevenoaks is a town in Kent with a population of 29,506 situated south-east of London, England. Also classified as a civil parish, Sevenoaks is served by a commuter main line railway into London.

A settlement was recorded in the 13th century, when a market was established. Construction of Knole House in the 15th century helped develop the village.

In the 21st century, it has a large commuting population. The nearby Fort Halstead defence installation was formerly a major local employer.
