EPHRAIM Written by Michael Skinner I Do Not Suppose
EPHRAIM Written by Michael Skinner I do not suppose many people in Penshurst will know me – or remember me, but my name is still just visible on the board over the entrance to the Post Office (formerly The Forge): I am described as SMITH & COACH BUILDER, Agent for agricultural implements. How much longer that inscription will last I cannot imagine, having been painted more than 100 years ago. Illustration by kind permission of Richard Wheatland www.richardwheatland.com Allow me to introduce myself: my name is John Ephraim SKINNER. I was born in November, 1872, at Wadhurst, East Sussex, the eldest son of a couple of farm workers. My father, Thomas, was a ploughman; my mother was just 20 years old when I was born. To be the eldest of 13 children gives anyone some position in life, and so it is no surprise that I grew up feeling rather responsible, not to say patronising towards my younger brothers and sisters. Look at me in the photograph, which I reproduce here. I could not help wearing a suit and butterfly collar – it was prescribed for me, but I did not object. Mind you – it was Sunday wear: we are in the days when everyone had to attend church, and had to dress formally – collar and tie, waistcoat, boots. How on earth do you think an agricultural worker and his wife could feed and clothe such a large family on their pathetic income? I cannot remember passing down clothes to younger boys when I outgrew them; I cannot ever remember having new clothes bought for me. -

During the summer months we watch Pembury come alive. The trees and the countryside are beautiful and the oak tree on the Green seems a perfect symbol. Events like the Summer Fayre, when visitors remark that they are pleased to be here and not in the town, remind us of what we have and what we share. Sadly we still have those few – maybe younger members – who seem to want to destroy and damage. -

Our 125th Anniversary, a new pavilion and the first club in KVCL history to have 4 senior sides playing league cricket. Admittedly, when the decision was taken to enter a 4th team into the league we were a little nervous…could the club cope? Do we have enough players? Is the infrastructure in place to sustain 4 teams? Will there be the required commitment from all involved? Well, there was absolutely no need to worry as the 2018 season can only be described as an incredible success. The 1st XI retained their league title with the highest points total ever seen in Division 1. The 2nd XI playing exclusively against first teams from other clubs finished third in Division 3. The 3rd XI played a mix of 1st and 2nd teams from other clubs and won Division 6 with the 4th XI playing exclusively against 2nd teams from other clubs and coming 6th out of the 14 teams.

Warders Medical Centre the History of a Practice in Tonbridge and Penshurst 1808-2021
1 Warders Medical Centre The History of a practice in Tonbridge and Penshurst 1808-2021 David MG Goodridge 2 This is the story of the Warders medical practice as it has evolved in step with the developments in medical care and the way in which it has been delivered over the past two centuries. Although it has been produced primarily for the patients of Warders Medical Centre and local residents, we feel it may also be of interest to other general practices and medical historians. We were surprised at the variety and depth of our own history which includes: · The first description of a rare form of epilepsy. · · A Victorian polymath whose research interests included the weights of human teeth and the study of shells and the compound eyes of insects. · · Research leading to an alteration in the UK Driving Regulations for patients with epilepsy. We hope this site will encourage other practices to research and publish their own histories and perhaps produce a virtual history of general practice. Page Number 1. Early days 1815-1894.
