From the Wikipedia article

Springhead Park, previously referred to as the Northfleet Rise Quarter during its early planning stages, is an English mixed-use residential development located in Ebbsfleet Garden City, part of the Ebbsfleet Valley in Gravesend, Kent. Situated adjacent to Ebbsfleet International Station, it was the first residential area to be developed as part of the larger Ebbsfleet Garden City project. According to Ebbsfleet Development Corporation (EDC) materials, the approved scheme provides 799 new homes (a mix of private and affordable tenure) together with community facilities – notably the Eastgate Church & Community Centre and Springhead Park Primary School (a free school) – and extensive public open space (Penn Green Park, play areas, a Linear Park corridor, and allotments).
