Village feel

Strood Rural covers the agricultural fringes and scattered communities north of the main urban area. This is chalk Kent countryside with farms and smallholdings, and it is popular with people who want genuinely rural conditions but need access to the town for work or school. Housing is limited and there is no real high street to speak of.
