KELLY'S DIRECTORY OF KENT AND SUSSEX 1915 TENTERDEN PAGES REPRODUCED TENTERDEN is a municipal borough, market town, a limb of the Cinque Port and liberty of Rye (Sussex) and the head of a union and country court district and parish, giving its name to the hundred, in the Southern division of the county, lathe of Scray and in the rural deanery of West Charing and archdeaconry of Maidstone, with a station, within two minutes’ walk of the centre of the town, on the Kent and East Sussex Railway, which is connected with the South Eastern and Chatham railway at Robertsbridge and Headcorn. The town is 7 miles west-by-north from Appledore station on the Rye and Hastings branch and 9 south-east from Headcorn station on the main line of the South Eastern and Chatham railway, 18 south-east from Maidstone, 12 south-west from Ashford, 8 south-west from Cranbrook, 10 north-west from Rye and 53 from London. The borough includes part of Stone-cum-Ebony. The town is lighted with gas supplied by a company, established in 1838, and has a good supply of water procured from springs, pipes for the supply of water to the town having been laid down by the Cranbrook Water Co. Tenterden possesses all the privileges of the Cinque Ports and received a charter of incorporation from Henry VI, and a new charter was granted 42 Elizabeth (1599-1600): it is a member of the ancient town of Rye and at the time of its annexation by Henry VI, the sea flowed up to the parish at Small Hythe. The Corporation consists of a mayor, four aldermen and twelve councillors. The borough has a commission of the peace and a separate court of quarter sessions held before the recorder.

John Albert Babington M.A. of New College, Oxford, and chaplain of Tenterden union. The diversion of the funds for the maintenance of the sea walls on the Goodwin to the building of Tenterden Church is said to have been the origin of a proverb as to the influence of Tenterden steeple in causing the Goodwin sands. Zion Baptist chapel, founded in I767, has sitting for 270 persons; and there is a Wesleyan chapel and a Unitarian meeting house, founded in I662: attached to the latter is a burial ground. A small cemetery of 3a. 2r. 27p. situated on the Cranbrook Road, without mortuary chapel, was formed in 1884, and is under the control of a burial board of nine members. The Town Hall, erected in 1792, stands on the north side of High street; here the county court, quarter sessions and other meetings are held; the hall used for concerts and lectures, will hold 250 persons. An annual fair is held on the first Monday in May for cattle and wool, and a lamb fair on the first Friday in September. The manorial rights are held by the Corporation, as lessees under the Dean and Chapter of Canterbury, who are the lords. The principal landowners are Virgil P. Pomfret esq. V.T. Dampier Palmer esq. Mrs. Peel and the trustees of the late Richard Neve esq. The generality of the land is pasture, above 100 acres consisting of hop plantations.

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’.

    BIDDENDEN DESIGN STATEMENT THE BIDDENDEN PARISH DESIGN STATEMENT STEERING GROUP, BIDDENDEN PARISH COUNCIL c/o THE PARISH CLERK, 15 ORCHARD GLADE, HEADCORN, KENT, TN27 9SS www.biddenden.gov.uk BIDDENDEN DESIGN STATEMENT ‘Kent is a county of timber and brick, not stone, not slate and not thatch’ CLIFTON-TAYLOR, 1972 ‘New developments in and around Ashford are designed to fit naturally into the Kent vernacular and reflect the strong sense of place, characteristic of the local area. Red clay tiled roofs and walls in brick, hung tile, painted weatherboard and painted brick and render should dominate.’ ATKINS - DESIGN, ENVIRONMENT & ENGINEERING CONSULTANTS (PLANNING, LANDSCAPE & HERITAGE DEPT.) 2002 This Design Statement has been formally adopted by Ashford Borough Council as Supplementary Planning Guidance. The document expresses many views held by local people involved in its preparation. In adopting the Design Statement the Council is not necessarily supporting all of these opinions but is undertaking to take into account the ‘design guidelines’ included in the text when making planning decisions. The Council does not have sufficient powers as planning authority to require these ‘design guidelines’ to be met in all cases - the active support and commitment of developers, landowners and householders is also essential. The points noted under ‘Local Views’ reflect the views of local residents expressed during the preparation of this document, and have not been adopted by Ashford Borough Council. ©2003 The Biddenden Parish Design Statement Group No part of this document may be reproduced for any purpose without the express written permission of the Biddenden Parish Design Statement Group BIDDENDEN DESIGN STATEMENT INTRODUCTION In common with many other parishes and villages around the country, the residents of Biddenden greatly value the community in which we live and wish to protect its character and way of life.
