The Pantiles
The Pantiles and Tunbridge Wells itself, owe their beginnings to the discovery of the Chalybeate Spring in the early 17th century and the popularity of the spa water amongst the gentry and royalty of Georgian England. As Tunbridge Wells grew in popularity as a spa resort, so did the area surrounding the Spring - eventually leading to the building of the colonnaded walkway in the 18th century, later known as The Pantiles.
The Pantiles is now home to a fascinating variety of small specialist shops, antique shops and open-air cafés, restaurants and bars. The Spring situated at the northern end of the Pantiles still flows, and the reputedly health-giving water is served in the summer months by a traditional 'Dipper'. In the summer months a series of open air band and evening jazz concerts take place.
The Pantiles is also where visitors will find the Tourist Information Centre in the Old Fish Market building.
