The Twyford Bridge.

Yalding lies where the Greensand Way and Medway Valley Walk cross, 6 miles (9.7 km) of Maidstone, at the confluence of the rivers Medway, Teise and Beult.
There are three bridges in the village; the Twyford Bridge (meaning twin ford, where there was originally a double crossing of the two rivers) is one of the finest medieval bridges in the south-east of England. Yalding was one of the principal shipment points on the River Medway for cannon, from villages of the Wealden iron industry. One iron master was John Browne from Horsmonden.

The wharf was later used for transporting fruit from the many orchards in the area.
