Boxley ward is large and primarily rural. The large areas it covers includes to the south-east sections of the housing adjacent to New Cut lane, to the West sections of the Forstal part of Aylesford a little west of Cobtree Manor Park, and to the north, it includes Bredhurst and borders onto Medway and Lordswood. Largely sitting as it does on the slopes and crest of the North Downs the views from Boxley ward are outstanding.
