Solar and battery in Faversham Creek and Davington
Homes beside the creek, with a priory on the hill.
Faversham Creek connects the town to the Swale. Davington Priory lies to the north-west of the town centre and was founded in the mid 12th century, so the streets around it have older buildings mixed with newer ones.
We do not guess which rules apply on a street here. Some of it may sit inside the Faversham Town conservation area and some may not, and a listed building needs consent whatever the street. We check your address against the council's records and tell you before you pay for a survey.
Homes close to open water get more wind and damp air. The European Commission advises panels certified to the IEC 61701 salt mist standard and corrosion-resistant fixings for coastal sites. We ask for those details on a quote near the creek, and for the warranty wording as well.
What we check at your address
- Whether the street is in a conservation area or the building is listed
- Panel and fixing specification for a site close to the water
- Roof direction, and shade from neighbouring buildings and trees

Questions about Faversham Creek
Can I get solar panels in Faversham Creek and Davington?
Most houses can. We check roof direction, shade and any conservation area, listed building or Article 4 rules for your address first. Swale Borough Council supplies records for around 50 conservation areas across the borough.
Should I choose solar only, solar and battery, or a battery only in Faversham Creek?
With a roof of your own, solar only is usually the best value. Solar and battery suits a home that is out in the day and busy at night, and battery only suits a home that already has solar, a cheap overnight tariff, or no usable roof. Our guide to choosing shows the sums.
