The centre was opened by Diana, Princess of Wales on 21 October 1992 after 36 months of construction.[4][5]

The site is bounded by Goods Station Road, Camden Road, Calverley Road and Grosvenor Road. Some of the shops in RVP have two entrances - one to the internal mall and one onto Camden Road (such as Next) or Calverley Road (such as Marks & Spencer and Topshop). The bus stops on Mount Pleasant Road are close to RVP.

A small part of the centre lies above the railway line between Tunbridge Wells and High Brooms stations.

Ownership

The centre was previously managed by Westfield Group, which sold its 50 per cent interest in the centre back to the original owner Hermes Real Estate in 2012.[6]

gollark: Changes I made:- check reactor methods in the loop- make the only thing in the `if` statement be setting `txt`, so that it runs the rest of the code for *both*- pass `print` multiple parameters, since it can use that happily- inline calls to stuff- `term` calls directly instead of `shell.run "clear"`, which is mildly more efficient- indentation
gollark: Here is the fixed version.
gollark: ```lualocal r = peripheral.wrap("back")while true do term.clear() term.setCursorPos(1, 1) local txt if r.getActive() then txt = "Aktiv" else txt = "Inaktiv" end print("Der Reaktor ist", txt) print(r.getEnergyStored(), "RF gespeichert") sleep(1)end```
gollark: Also, please use local variables and do indentation.
gollark: What you need to do is check `r.getActive` and the other stuff *in the loop*, and ensure that both branches correctly yield and print everything.
