This month's cover: ‘Cottage Garden’ Photographer: Toni Huxley View from the Layne Dear All, Looking out of my window I am reminded of a line of poetry: ‘When weeds in wheels shoot long and lovely and lush’. I can confirm they are shooting in my garden right now, especially bellbine, which is the food plant of the White Plume Moth, a sometime resident. Passers-by may see it as a weed and judge my gardening abilities accordingly. But a weed is a plant growing where it is not wanted. So far as I am concerned, this plant is needed in my front garden and is not a weed. Should I put a notice up, ‘White Plume Moths Welcome’? There are keen gardeners who would still not approve. But we are all uniquely different, thank goodness, and that goes as much for our opinions and preferences as it does for our combination of facial features or favourite food. Difference should be something to celebrate. But there comes a point where the alternative behaviour, thinking or appearance that results from the difference becomes unacceptable. The critical points come with the choices of where to draw the line between what is and is not acceptable and how we then act. Too often we don’t reach those critical points of thinking something through. There is a knee jerk reaction, perhaps an instant remark, a hasty email, and the negative consequences are out of the trap and running. The damage is done. But supposing we started from a different place? The weeds in wheels line comes from a poem by Gerald Manley Hopkins, Spring. Later in the poem he asks: ‘What is all this juice and all this joy?’ He is not judging parts of his surrounding in isolation but instead is seeing them all as a part of God’s Creation, the weeds, a pear tree in blossom, the birdsong, the blue sky and a bird’s nest are all linked in some way that fills him with joy. He is also part of Creation, ‘fearfully and wonderfully made’, as the Psalmist says, and his imperative to write poetry is an outpouring of the unique gift of creativity that he has been given by God. God has made each one of us in his own image. He is the arch creator and as we are ‘in his image’ we each contain some spark of creativity. For Hopkins it was writing poetry. It could equally be the ability to be the manager who can build a team of people that complement each other’s skills and work well together, whether playing a game, putting on a show, running a shop or manufacturing china tea sets. Or it could be the guy in the team who can be relied upon to get everyone through a bad day with words of encouragement, humour and perfect timing for making the coffee. The words that come to mind are sharing, 3 caring, celebrating. Achievement is recognised not solely in economic terms but in joy, satisfaction and the knowledge that a worthwhile contribution has been made. The idea of creating here is close to flourishing. Jesus had something to say about that, a message about being spiritually connected and the power of love. Typically he used a strong image to help people get his point. He says to his disciples: “I am the Vine, you are the branches. When you’re joined with me and I with you, the relation intimate and organic, the harvest is sure to be abundant. Separated, you can’t produce a thing. Anyone who separates from me is deadwood, gathered up and thrown on the bonfire. But if you make yourselves at home with me and my words are at home in you, you can be sure that whatever you ask will be listened to and acted upon.” (John 15. 5 – 8) May we all celebrate our differences, find joy in sharing and may the White Plume Moth flourish.

But in addition to Geoffrey singing from the exalted and safe position of the organ loft in St Mary’s the choir is singing a hymn and the Gloria in St Peter’s. Campfire – Last month we invited people to ‘Bring their own Beverage’ and a time of safely distanced open-air general chat did happen after the very informal service. The same will apply for July. And for those who just cannot wait, singing is allowed in the churchyard around the Campfire.

Organised by the Newenden Trust to raise funds for the new village hall, the day will include a Pimms bar, the cake competition judged by Rev Chris Hodgkins and Raymond Chitty, a tombola in aid of Saint Peter's Church, an exciting raffle managed by Jane and Brian Livesey and last but not least, the Sponsored Duck Race held by the Friends of Saint Peter's Church. Stalls can be booked by local residents and we can always do with a few extra people to help on the day, so please just get in touch. Ingrid Nilson, Events Coordinator 01797 252030 Anticipation Rising The rumour is going the rounds of the community, our Annual Freedom Day has been moved forward by one week this year. Oh yes, we know all about Freedom Day and, it has to be said, we are very good at lockdowns. We have been doing lockdowns for years, long ones. And we just know how important our annual time is when we come out of our enclosed space. We know the preparation for safe release will include the highest level of testing, none of that quick-fix sight check that carries a risk of false positives and missed negatives.

This month's cover: ‘Meeting Point’ by Judy Vinson View from the Layne here’s a lot being talked about right now around the new normal and how we can preserve some of the good things that have happened during lockdown. There is T no automatic return to the old normal. Change is in the air. In church we pray for a very specific change very regularly when we pray: Thy kingdom come. The second line from the Lord’s Prayer, a prayer that echoes in the back of many minds. For Christians the prayer is part of every formal act of worship. The first thing we ask: Your kingdom, dear God on earth: but what, exactly are we asking for? The next line gives us a big clue: ‘as it is in heaven’.

The church celebrations, Holy Week, Easter, Ascension Day, Pentecost, Trinity and of course Christmas. They still happened but without the pomp and ceremony that we have become used to. Perhaps the pandemic has enabled us to go back to the sacredness of our church festivals and allowed us to engage with them in a more spiritual way. I’ve also missed my family and friends. The gatherings we would normally have during the year just haven’t happened.

Throughout the games and various formats the teams showed amazing depth, from the School boys, university boys to older boys. As with previous seasons we gave some of the larger league clubs a demonstration in the art of village cricket. There were some stand out performances with the bat from Morris and Sloan at the top of the order, and great middle order hitting and game management from the likes of Jasper Piper, Will Simpson and new boy Ben Browning. Notable mention must also go to Jonesy Jnr who notched up his maiden half century for the club, and outscored his old man for what will be the first of many seasons to come. The Bowling attack was once again driven by the ever dependable Smith and Bradney, taking close to fifty wickets between them and more often than not laying the foundation for victory.

  • Drainage and Wastewater Management Plan (DWMP) Rother
    Drainage and Wastewater Management Plan (DWMP) Rother Catchment 1 Drainage and Wastewater Management Plans River Rother Catchment - DRAFT Strategic Context The Environment Agency has previously defined the River Basin District catchments in their River Basin Management Plans prepared in response to the European Union’s Water Framework Directive. These river basin catchments are based on the natural configuration of bodies of water (rivers, estuaries, lakes etc.) within a geographical area, and relate to the natural watershed of the main rivers. We are using the same catchment boundaries for our Level 2 DWMPs. A map of the Rother river basin catchment is shown in figure 1. Figure 1: The Rother River Basin Catchment in East Sussex and Kent Based upon the Ordnance Survey map by Southern Water Services Ltd by permission of Ordnance Survey on behalf of the Controller of Her Majesty’s Stationery Office. Crown copyright Southern Water Services Limited 1000019426 2 Drainage and Wastewater Management Plans River Rother Catchment - DRAFT Overview of the River Rother Catchment The Rother catchment drains just over 982km2 of land in East Sussex and Kent, with the largest and longest river in the catchment being the River Rother. The catchment has a unique collection of river systems and man-made canals and includes the network of ditches, streams and sewers of the Romney Marsh and the 28 mile Royal Military Canal. The Rother rises near Rotherfield in Wealden district of East Sussex and flows for 35 miles through East Sussex and Kent to its mouth on Rye Bay on the English Channel. Along its course, it is joined by the Rivers Limden and Dudwell at Etchingham, the River Darwell to the north of Robertsbridge, and the Brede and Tillingham Rivers which join it at Rye before it discharges to the sea.

Plans to decorate our churches for the festival are well in hand and occupying a central place will be the Easter garden. The Easter garden is full of symbolism. It represents the beauty of springtime, the yearly marvel of nature’s renewal. But it’s much more than that. The garden takes us back to creation when, said the ancient story, God planted a garden in Eden and placed Adam there to look after it.

  • Routeways Introduction
    Tenterden Neighbourhood Plan Evidence: Routeways Introduction Tenterden is blessed with an extraordinary heritage of footpaths and ancient roadways connecting the town with its landscape and history. These routeways are a unique asset for the community as well as being an attraction for visitors to the Parish. Tenterden is also a nodal centre for routes radiating to Rolvenden and Hastings (A28), Wittersham and Rye (B2080), Woodchurch (B2067), and Ashford and Maidstone (A28/A262). There are already many policy statements at national and local level relating to routeways, and Public Rights of Way (PROW) benefit from statutory protection. This paper summarises the policy background and analyses existing PROW and historic routeways in order to highlight opportunities to develop Neighbourhood Plan policies to address local requirements and for potential projects (including investment) to protect and enhance our routeways. Some of the evidence gathered in respect of routeways has been used to support the development of policy in other workstreams of the Neighbourhood Plan. This document, therefore, also provides wider contextual evidence in support of those proposed policies. 2 Routeways | Tenterden Neighbourhood Development Plan Routeways | Tenterden Neighbourhood Development Plan 3 Methodology A Routeways Working Group was formed to assist the Steering Committee in preparing the Tenterden Neighbourhood Plan. This dedicated group of volunteers has reviewed relevant parts of the National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF), the Ashford Local Plan, 2030 (ALP), the AONB Management Plan 2019-2024 and High Weald Housing Design Guide, 2019 and the Sustrans Kent Town Audit of Tenterden, 2018. Members of the group have walked and documented the principal PROWs and in particular those that connect to the High Street.
