Eschewing the mass ingredients bought via the internet from a pizza -produced mainstream offerings from national food factory in Slough. So, what is the difference? None, wholesalers, more and more pubs are preparing we would suggest. meals from first principles, and they often use fresh local produce too. It’s all good stuff, especially when combined with Locale beers and locally-made ciders. Meals on Wheels Many pubs in the latest CAMRA Herefordshire Pubs Digital Urinals guide can boast at least some home-made food. The Emperor’s clothes come to mind here. How However, one phrase you will not find to describe a much longer is this specious marketing-speak to pub’s food in the guide is the rather bizarre term persist before someone asks the obvious question: “home-cooked”. what does it mean? Where will we end up if the term “home-cooking” continues to be used Think about it for a moment. What precisely does it unchallenged - pubs advertising organic car parks; mean? What process is involved that makes a pub digital water features or bi-lingual urinals, perhaps? meal “home-cooked” as opposed to being cooked at the pub? Is the food brought-in pre-cooked in foil It’s all complete home-cooked rhubarb. containers from the licensee’s home in a van – This article might well be tongue-in-cheek, but surely that’s Meals on Wheels? Or maybe a pub nonetheless an appeal goes to pubs for 2012: Let’s doesn’t have a commercial kitchen, and meals are please get a grip and ditch the half-baked nonsense. cooked on a domestic cooker on the premises? A meal cooked on a Baby Belling cooker might help explain one or two lengthy waits for a pub meal in the past! Lavatorial tandoori One pub (thankfully not in Herefordshire) is even quoted in the CAMRA Good Beer Guide as offering Kitchen-cooked meals. Duh! Where else would they be cooked? On the roof, or perhaps in a tandoori oven in the ladies loo? What is for sure, is the term “home-cooked” gives absolutely no assurance as to the provenance of the ingredients in a meal.

    http://kentarchaeology.org.uk/research/archaeologia-cantiana/ Kent Archaeological Society is a registered charity number 223382 © 2017 Kent Archaeological Society ( 54 ) A HAND-LIST OF ENGLISH ENCLOSURE ACTS AND AWARDS. PART 17. OPEN FIELDS, COMMONS AND ENCLOSURES IN KENT. BY W. E. TATE, F.R.HIST.S. KENT, as Professor H. L. Gray's map shows,1 lies well outside the main. area recognized as having formerly been cultivated under the two- and three-field systems. Meitzen2 considered that the differences—very obvious to even a superficial enquirer—existing between the field structure of Kent and that of the Midland counties are clear evidence of "Celtic " settlement. The difficulty in the way of accepting this theory is that Kent, as we shall see later, is probably of all the English counties the one most pre-eminently English in its settlement. Never- theless, it is characterized by the peculiar field systems alluded to, and in general by very early enclosure. So far is this true that some very competent authorities have doubted how far either common arable fields or common pastures were ever generally prevalent here. Professor Gray found evidence of such, however, and his findings are confirmed and are amplified by the later researches of Dr. and Mrs. Orwin.3 They have found definite evidence of the existence of open fields medievally both to the north and to the south of the Weald. They quote Dr. Muhlfeld4 for further evidence as to the existence of four fields at Wye in 1312. Dr. Muhlfeld, however, found that these fields early disappeared.

    The FREE Magazine of the Ashford, Folkestone & Romney Marsh Branch of CAMRA - The Campaign for Real Ale Congratulations 30 Years in GBG POTY 2015 Summer 2015 Chairmans Report Welcome to the summer edition of Marsh Mash. Well the Kent & East Sussex Railway Real and Ale and Cider festival was a tremendous success. There was an excellent selection of beer lined up in order of strength. It was mostly sold out along with a significant amount of the cider. I would like to thank the railway and all who volunteered to help during the setting up the racking to serving behind the bar. Without your help we would not be able to run the festival. I also hope that everyone who attended enjoyed themselves and will hopefully attend again next year. If you would like to be more involved with the festival or Ashford, Folkestone and Romney Marsh CAMRA, please come along to our meetings. The next one being at the Globe, Hythe at 7:30pm on 10th September. Since the last edition several things have happened within the branch, Stuart and Gilly have left the Guildhall, Doris at the Red Lion Snargate was presented with two awards by Roger Protz, editor of the GBG, one for branch Pub of the Year (POTY) and the other for being in the Good Beer Guide (GBG) for 30 consecutive years. An enjoyable trip around pubs in the hinterland of Folkestone was fully booked and I believe everybody enjoyed themselves including some colleagues from Dover. Remember you don’t need to be a member to join us on our trips to remote pubs with no regular public transport.
