Royal Victoria Place (RVP) is a mostly covered shopping centre located in the town of Tunbridge Wells, Kent. The centre features a 3 floor Fenwick's department store, a 2 floor Marks and Spencer, a 2 floor Bhs, a 2 floor Boots and around 110 other stores,[3] as well as a community centre (the Camden Centre) managed by Tunbridge Wells Borough Council.
The centre was opened by Diana, Princess of Wales on 21 October 1992 after 36 months of construction.[4][5]
The site is bounded by Goods Station Road, Camden Road, Calverley Road and Grosvenor Road. Some of the shops in RVP have two entrances - one to the internal mall and one onto Camden Road (such as Next) or Calverley Road (such as Marks & Spencer and Topshop). The bus stops on Mount Pleasant Road are close to RVP.
A small part of the centre lies above the railway line between Tunbridge Wells and High Brooms stations.
Ownership
The centre was previously managed by Westfield Group, which sold its 50 per cent interest in the centre back to the original owner Hermes Real Estate in 2012.[6]
