Around 150 new jobs will be created when a chain of retail units fill Whitfield's White Cliffs Retail Park.

Work on the 43,000 sq ft development has started, with a drive-thru KFC already confirmed.

Two of the three retail units have been pre-let and negotiations are at an 'advanced stage' on the third and final store.

The park, that will have 179 parking spaces is located opposite the Tesco Extra store, close to the A2.

It is said to cost more than £10 million and should be complete by spring next year.

The work is being done by contractors, Readie Construction who are based in Romford.

The developers, Location 3 Properties Ltd are in Maidstone.
