Not so. As the crow flies, using the geodesic calculator at http://geographiclib.sourceforge.net, the distance is 3.72 km from the centre of Frant to the centre of Royal Tunbridge Wells. According to Google maps, the distance is 5.1 km by car; 4.8 km by foot; 5.1 km by push bike. Further, according to the Descriptive Gazetteer Entry for Frant in 1887, Frant is 3 miles south of Tunbridge Wells, viz: 'Frant, vil. with ry. sta., E. Sussex, and par. (partly also in W. Kent) -- par., 8991 ac., pop. 3481; vil., 3 miles S. of Tunbridge Wells; P.O., T.O. (John Bartholomew, Gazetteer of the British Isles (1887))'
Further still, one reads this at the Vision of Britain entry for Frant at http://www.visionofbritain.org.uk/place/3326:
'In 1870-72, John Marius Wilson's Imperial Gazetteer of England and Wales described Frant like this:
    "FRANT, a village in Ticehurst district, Sussex, and a parish and a sub-district in the same district, but partly also in Kent. The village stands 1¼ mile WSW of the nearest part of the Tunbridge and Hastings railway, and 3 miles S of Tunbridge Wells; and has a station on the railway, and a post office under Tunbridge Wells. The parish includes also Hawkenbury and part of Tunbridge Wells town. Acres, 8, 872; of which about 310 are in Kent. Real property, £13, 394. Pop., 2, 469. ...
    
    Houses, 488. Pop. of the Kent portion, 307. Houses, 58. The property is subdivided. Bayham Abbey and Eridge Castle are here. See Bayham and Eridge. About 130 acres are under hops.
