		Ebbsfleet International railway station is a railway station in Ebbsfleet, in the borough of Dartford, Kent.
		Ebbsfleet International Station is served by Eurostar, with up to four trains per hour in peak time between Ebbsfleet, Paris and Brussels.
		"Ebbsfleet International Station" was the name originally proposed for the station, but 'Dartford International Station' was later proposed at the urging of Eurostar, who felt that Dartford was a name with greater national recognition.

	Ebbsfleet International
		‘’Ebbsfleet’’ derives from the name of the River Fleet, which passes through the site: it appears to begin at Spring Head Nursery, immediately north of the A2, passes under the western end of Northfleet station, and flows into the Thames at the same longitudinal point as the latter.
		The reserved land was bordered to its west by Southfleet Road, to the north by the North Kent Line, to the east by a flooded chalk pit and the A2260, and finally, to the south by the A2 trunk road.
		The whole project in North West Kent was known as the ‘’Ebbsfleet Development’’, which comprised an area of 174 hectares: this expanse was allocated for the station complex, business units, and housing.

		Apart from its national significance, the early and successful development of the Ebbsfleet area around the CTRL international and domestic passenger station is a core element in the overall regeneration of Kent Thameside and a vital component in the strategy for the eastern part of the Gateway.
		Ebbsfleet has been identified as a potential location for Business and Financial Services on a scale that could, in the long-term, be similar to Canary Wharf.
		However, a key issue is the extent to which Ebbsfleet will be able to attract HQ operations and high value added activities rather than simply becoming a location for back office and other routine administrative functions in the finance field.

		The presence of pollen grains from a number of tree species, including birch, pine, oak, elm, alder and hazel, and teeth from a woodmouse indicate an interglacial climate, similar to or warmer than the present day, with the lake surrounded by woodland, probably with some open areas due to heavy grazing.
		Of the two vole species found at the Ebbsfleet site, the pine vole has been extinct in England for the last 400,000 years and the type of water vole found has only been present for the last 500,000 years.
		The deposits at the Ebbsfleet site are slightly older than those that produced the skull of "Swanscombe Man," in fact now thought to be female, over 50 years ago at Barnfield Pit, Swanscombe about 2km away, but younger than those at Boxgrove, where a shin bone was found in 1993.

		Ebbsfleet is Britain’s biggest park and ride project, with a 7,000-plus space car park.
		The opening of Ebbsfleet has led Eurostar to revise its overall stopping pattern to reflect the expected future demand at the two stations in Kent.
		The reason for reducing the number of trains stopping at Ashford is, of course, the opening of a second station in Kent at Ebbsfleet, which is strategically located close to the A2 and M25—perhaps too close, as the hon.

		Ebbsfleet‘s proposed commuter station, however, will be sought after but such commuters could be drawn from a 15 or 20-mile radius, rather than in the immediate vicinity.”
		Cluttons predicts that house prices will have increased by 40% in the Thames Gateway and 20% across Kent by the time the Ebbsfleet CTRL station is completed in 2006 but in the short-term commercial land values and properties are not expected to increase in value as steeply as residential.
		However, if Ebbsfleet does make the North Kent area a more attractive place to live, bringing in skilled and professional people, then companies will be more encouraged to set up and commercial land values will accelerate.

		The sudden death of Michael Houghton barely a year after his consecration as Bishop of Ebbsfleet is a great loss to the constituency within the Church of England which looks to the ministry of the Provincial Episcopal Visitors (or "Flying Bishops").
		Even before his consecration he set about getting to know the priests in the Ebbsfleet area and their parishes which by the time of his death reached 100.
		The Chapel he created in his home was a place where the parishes and priests of the Ebbsfleet area were prayed for regularly, aided by a loose-leaf book containing details of his parishes, and photographs of his clergy and their families.
