  • East Barming in 1798
    Hasted’s Kent East Barming in 1798 Edward Hasted, The history and topographical survey of the county of Kent, second edition, volume 4 (Canterbury, 1798), pages 383–92 EAST BARMING. CALLED in antient records, Bermelinge, lies the next parish to East Farleigh, on the opposite or north= ern side of the river Medway. THE PARISH of East Barming lies on high ground, declining southward to the valley, through which the river Medway flows, being its southern boundary. It is situated opposite to East Farleigh, than which it has a far less rustic and more ornamented appearance. 384 The soil like that is a fertile loam, slightly covering the quarry rock, from under which several small springs gush out, and run precipitately in trinkling rills into the Medway; it is enriched too with fre= quent hop and fruit plantations; the fields are in ge= neral larger, and surrounded with continued rows of lofty elms and large spreading oaks, which contribute greatly to the pleasantness of the place. The situation of it, as well as of the neighbouring parishes, from Maidstone as far as Mereworth, is exceedingly beau= tiful, the river Medway meandering its silver stream in the valley beneath, throughout the greatest part of the extent of them; the fertility of soil, the heal= thiness of air, the rich variety of prospect, adorned by a continued range of capital seats, with their parks and plantations, form altogether an assemblage of ob= jects, in which nature and art appear to have lavished their choicest endeavours, to form a scene teeming with whatever can make it desirable both for pleasure and profit.
