Boundaries
The constituency shares similar borders to that of the Borough of Gravesham. The largest town in the constituency is Gravesend.
The boundaries of this constituency are due to change slightly under initial proposals published by the Boundary Commission to include 4,784 electors currently situated in the neighbouring constituency of Dartford. Such changes would also see the constituency renamed Gravesend.
