Practical Test Centres Near Larkfield

Maidstone is the closest practical centre to Larkfield, around four miles south-east with a pass rate just above the national average. Routes typically cover the town centre approaches, residential estates and sections of the A20 and A229, so most learners spend their final lessons practising those corridors and the busier junctions around the Medway valley.

Gillingham sits around eight miles north-east with a stronger pass rate, making it a popular choice when Maidstone slots are limited. Sevenoaks is roughly eleven miles west and posts similar results to Gillingham, though it draws learners from a wider patch so availability can be tighter during peak months.
