Twydall

ME8 6

Twydall sits on the eastern edge of Gillingham, a residential area built up after the war with a mix of council housing, social housing, and some private semis. It has some green space but doesn't feel particularly well-served by local shops or amenities. The character is working class and not particularly aspirational. It's the most affordable of the Gillingham areas and families on a very tight budget might look here, but there's nothing about the environment or the schools that would make someone choose it over better-connected spots.
