Hartley Kent: Hoselands View
Hoselands View: southern entrance (picture taken 2016)

Hoselands View is a short road linking Wellfield and Larksfield, consisting of 5 pairs of semi-detached houses and 2 pairs of semi-detached bungalows.  The houses have an attractive aspect, as they overlook the tree lined Hoselands Green, hence the road's name.  I understand the road is not adopted, but is owned by the West Kent Housing Association.  The green was transferred by Sevenoaks District Council to Hartley Parish Council a few years ago.  Originally they were all council houses, but only 4 of them are now.

It was built in 1950 by Dartford Rural District Council on land that had been part of the Payne and Trapps Estate.  The 14 houses of Hoselands View, with 12 in Wellfield and Larksfield cost the council £29,722 to build.  Along the back Larkwell Lane was constructed to provide access to the garages for the houses.  In Larkwell Lane is also the headquarters of the Longfield and Hartley Scout Group.  It is held on lease from Sevenoaks Council and both the lease and planning conditions currently limit the use to the Scouts only.

Hoselands was part of a large field purchased and laid out in building plots by Payne and Trapps Co Limited in 1907 (for further details see the article on Payne and Trapps, and a map of Larksfield in 1907).  Originally it was envisaged that shops be built here, later the Ordnance map of 1936 marks the area as a 'Playing field', but there is little evidence of this on the German reconnaisance photograph of 1940 below (Larksfield is numbered 1, and Wellfield 2 - the house that can be seen in Wellfield is Colyton, number 18).

Running parallel is Larkwell Lane, another small road joining Larksfield and Wellfield, hence the name.  Last time I went along there it looked like it could definitely do with resurfacing.  There are no houses along here, only the Scout Hut and a row of garages.

Explanation:

Date of Construction is sometimes approximate. Plot histories include the ancient farms and fields.

Planning Permissions include the reference number, so more details can be seen at Sevenoaks Council. My records are not complete and I have not included refused or withdrawn applications.

Rateable value - this is how much the Valuation Office think the property would get if rented for a year.  The 1956 revaluation for some reason set this figure as the rental for 1939.  The gross value has been used here as better representing the true value, however rates were paid on a net figure after certain statutory deductions.

Council tax is based on what the Valuation Office thought the property would have sold for in 1993. It is divided into 8 value bands.  The banding can be changed after significant improvements, but only after the property is next sold.  The Valuation Office flags these with an "improvement indicator".
