- Q5147184 abstract "Collier Street is a small village and civil parish in the Borough of Maidstone in Kent, England.The village of Collier Street includes a Church, primary school, a small business estate and several farms. St. Margaret's church forms the centre of the village and was built between 1847 and 1849. It forms part of a benefice also comprising St. Mary's in Laddingford and St. Peter & St. Paul in Yalding. The three villages are located within three miles of each other but Collier Street, once part of Yalding's civil parish, has been part of its own parish since 1999. The civic or civil parish of Collier Street is governed by an elected parish council and was formed following a review by Maidstone Borough Council.Having been first built in 1860, the Church of England primary school (St. Margaret's CEP) has been enlarged several times, now to accommodate more than 100 pupils. The closest comprehensive secondary school is Mascalls Academy and there are several private schools in the area. Ex-pupils of St. Margaret's typically attend Mascalls or one of the various grammar schools in the nearest towns.The village is in a rural location, but is close to the larger villages of Yalding, Marden and Horsmonden. The nearest towns are Paddock Wood, Maidstone, Tonbridge and Royal Tunbridge Wells. Collier Street itself comprises several older farms or substantial houses which existed before the majority of the village's housing was built in Victorian times, and parts of the village are still named for these houses, for example Saxonden, Spitzbrook and Mockbeggar. Just three old wealden roads make up the main part of the village, the main B2162 leads from Yalding in the north to Horsmonden in the south.Historically, the village was situated in the middle of a hop-growing region. Its population swelled during the harvest as whole families, often from South-East London, arrived to help bring in the hops. However, as foreign hops became cheaper and easier to source nearly all the farms moved to other arable production. Today the fields are home to pears, strawberries and raspberries, but the area is known more for its apple orchards - the village has been colloquially known in the past as 'The village in an orchard'. Some of the old hoppers' huts can be found amongst the local orchards, fields and gardens.The village has a population of less than 500 and is slightly unusual in having no shop, post office or pub. There were once at least two pubs in the village itself but these are now private residences, The Duke of Wellington,(Now Wellington House)and the Prince of Wales,(now Kerry House). There are two pubs within a mile of the village however; The Woolpack in Benover to the north and The White Hart in Claygate to the south. There was once a shop/ post office at the far end of Haviker Street, but this wasn't re-instated after a fire in 1994. There was also Harold Curds shop and police station opposite Bartons Farm in the 1960s and 1970s.Until recently, Collier Street was home to The Boarded Circuit, a Grasstrack motorcycle racing circuit which held two or three events each season, most notably the International Bonfire Burnup. The circuit was unique in being the only fully boarded permanent Grasstrack venue in the UK. The village is also only a few miles from the Beltring The Hop Farm Country Park, once a Whitbread farm and brewery, now a family attraction and concert venue.".
