  • Landscape Assessment of Kent 2004
    CHILHAM: STOUR VALLEY Location map: CHILHAMCHARACTER AREA DESCRIPTION North of Bilting, the Stour Valley becomes increasingly enclosed. The rolling sides of the valley support large arable fields in the east, while sweeps of parkland belonging to Godmersham Park and Chilham Castle cover most of the western slopes. On either side of the valley, dense woodland dominate the skyline and a number of substantial shaws and plantations on the lower slopes reflect the importance of game cover in this area. On the valley bottom, the river is picked out in places by waterside alders and occasional willows. The railway line is obscured for much of its length by trees. STOUR VALLEY Chilham lies within the larger character area of the Stour Valley within the Kent Downs AONB. The Great Stour is the most easterly of the three rivers cutting through the Downs. Like the Darent and the Medway, it too provided an early access route into the heart of Kent and formed an ancient focus for settlement. Today the Stour Valley is highly valued for the quality of its landscape, especially by the considerable numbers of walkers who follow the Stour Valley Walk or the North Downs Way National Trail. Despite its proximity to both Canterbury and Ashford, the Stour Valley retains a strong rural identity. Enclosed by steep scarps on both sides, with dense woodlands on the upper slopes, the valley is dominated by intensively farmed arable fields interspersed by broad sweeps of mature parkland. Unusually, there are no electricity pylons cluttering the views across the valley. North of Bilting, the river flows through a narrow, pastoral floodplain, dotted with trees such as willow and alder and drained by small ditches.

Royal Tunbridge Wells Date 16.10.2019 Kent TN1 1RS Dear Planning Policy Team, Tunbridge Wells Local Plan Regulation 18 Consultation: Response on behalf of Tonbridge and Malling Borough Council (TMBC) Thank you for the opportunity to comment on the above consultation. The consultation draft of the emerging Tunbridge Wells Local Plan was considered at an extraordinary meeting of the Council’s Planning and Transportation Advisory Board on the 2nd October and again by the Cabinet on the 16th October. Both meetings were characterised by comprehensive debate. TMBC recognises the challenges facing Tunbridge Wells Borough Council (TWBC) in preparing this Plan as we share many of the same constraints, including significant areas of Green Belt and Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty in preparing the Tonbridge and Malling Local Plan. The aim of meeting objectively assessed needs for future development within the Borough is one we both share and is welcomed. However, the proximity of some of the major development proposals to the borough boundary and specifically, the south east of our main settlement of Tonbridge, is a matter of serious concern due to the potential impacts on the local highway network, rail services and other community infrastructure including health care and education, particularly when combined with planned developments in Tonbridge

  • The Mill on the Leybourne Stream and Its Water Management in the Eighteenth and Nineteenth Centuries
    Archaeologia Cantiana Vol. 130 - 2010 THE MILL ON THE LEYBOURNE STREAM AND ITS WATER MANAGEMENT IN THE EIGHTEENTH AND NINETEENTH CENTURIES SIMON PRATT, PETER SEARY AND SHEILA SWEETINBURGH In 2004 the Canterbury Archaeological Trust undertook a desk-based assessment of the environs of the former watermill (TQ 68715 58485) at Leybourne (Fig. 1), along with the recording of a surviving wall of the mill and a contour survey of an area to its south and west. The same area was sampled by evaluation trenching the following year (Fig. 2). These investigations into the mill’s water-management system formed part of a much broader project, commissioned and coordinated by Kent County Council, to deal with the archaeological impact of the realignment of the A228 to bypass Leybourne and West Malling. The greater part of that project is reported upon elsewhere1 whilst much of the later history of the mill has been covered in an unpublished study,2 which its author generously made available. Though some of the various phases of undated, low-level water channels identified on the valley floor (Tr.11, 18, ?19, 24 and 24A) may have fed early mills mentioned in documentary sources, there was no clear evidence that they were so associated, nor that they had been artificially diverted from their natural course. Other than these channels, only two main phases of water-management system could be identified during fieldwork and it is upon them, and contemporary documentary evidence, that this article will concentrate. The first such phase (Fig. 3) included three or four leats or ditches (A-D), most probably feeding a small mill pond.
