Very sweeping statements here! In particular:

• surely "village" is better than "community"?
• the impression in the village itself (ie the original village) is that it is very compact: OK there are outlying settlements such as Hearts Delight, but that applies to most villages
• Sittingbourne, to which it is almost joined, hardly gets a mention
• have all the orchards been "scrubbed" (shouldn't that be "grubbed up" anyway?): in many parts of Kent they have been replaced with easier to manage lower trees; and the land must be used for something, surely?
• and is it really true that "most people commute"?
