Syndale Valley Walk • Earth, Wind and Water Protect Plants and Animals, and Take Your Litter Home
PEACE, SOLITUDE: Syndale A RURAL WAY OF LIFE Valley Walk faversham.org/walking NEWNHAM – EASTLING – STALISFIELD – DODDINGTON Peace, solitude: a rural way of life “Enchant, stay Escape to a land that time forgot, where farming, food and rural traditions remain the cornerstones of community life among the beautiful and graceful, unspoilt and picturesque scenery of the Syndale Valley. but do this, eat well” Running through the mid Kent Downs – an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty – the chalk valley remains one of the few Charles Pierre Monselet timeless landscapes in this busy corner of Kent. Not without its own share of historic highlights and notoriety, your walk begins in the ancient settlement of Newnham, nestled in the Syndale Valley since at least the 12th century. Here the Romans grew grapes and James Pimm was born – creator of one of Britain’s best-loved summer drinks, the eponymous Pimms. The Revd. Granville Wheler proved the existence of electric current in 1725 at Otterden Place – just one of the grand homes that pepper your path as you make your way through ancient woods, working farmland and historic grazing pastures. Many of the woods on your route are still hunted by wildfowlers who sell their game to local butchers and restaurants, while others support the rural craft of coppicing - common in this area. Traditional coppicing of sweet chestnut shoots for fence stakes extends the life of the trees and floods the woodland floor with light in spring and summer, promoting an abundance of flowers and food for wildlife. As you pass back into sweeping open fields you may see kestrels and other birds of prey.

A Message from Your County Councillor - September 2018
A Message from your County Councillor - September 2018 As ever, Local Government’s quietest month August was followed by the busiest September. Thank goodness for two full days at the Hop Festival joined this year, for the first time, by my eldest grandson on day one. Local meetings and issues have dominated this month. These have included further meetings with residents together with Kent Highways to discuss flooding in Lynsted, Doddington and Bapchild. Some works have already been undertaken, a lot more are in the pipeline if you will excuse the pun. I have continued to visit Parish Councils to discuss the update to Swale’s Corporate Plan. This month we have debated with Parish Councillors and residents at Ospringe, Rodmersham, Hartlip, Dunkirk and Minster on Sheppey. In addition to these I have made my regular visits to Tunstall, Eastling, Sheldwich, Badlesmere and Leaveland, Selling and Stalisfield Parish Councils. I also tried to get to Bapchild Parish Council after the meeting at Minster on the Isle of Sheppey only to find they had finished! I did though arrive in time for a “catch up” with both the Chairman and the Clerk in the Village Hall car park. Also, in a localist vein I attended a meeting of the President and Vice- Presidents of the Kent Association of Local Councils and later in the month a Saturday morning Executive Meeting of the same body. There has also been a Swale Joint Transport Board and a Swale Rural Policing meeting with Swale Police and the National Farmers Union to Chair. I have had two trips to London in September, one for the National Executive Board of District Councils and one for the Executive of South East England Councils.

Bawleys, Barbels and Owlers: Life Along the Kent Coast’
Issue Seven, Summer 2017 This issue of the Archive Service Team’s newsletter coincides with the launch of our latest exhibition ‘Bawleys, Barbels and Owlers: Life along the Kent coast’. The exhibition is in partnership with Screen Archive South East and is part of the British Film Institute’s ‘Britain on Film’ national campaign, which this year explores the theme ‘Coast and Sea’. Bawleys, Barbels and Owlers is open until October 28 during normal library hours and is free to visit. The exhibition runs alongside a programme of fascinating history talks (and performances of sea shanties); details of these can be found on the last page of this newsletter. Bawleys, Barbels and Owlers Kent’s coast comes to the Kent History and Library Centre If you visited the KHLC recently you may have heard the squawk of seagulls coming from our new exhibition ‘Bawleys, Barbels and Owlers’, which opened on Saturday 5 August. The exhibition looks at life along the Kent coast using documents from Kent’s archive collections, film from Screen Archive South East and objects from Dover Museum. The exhibition explores the history of Kent’s coast through the stories of the people who have lived and worked along its shores. These stories show how the coast has sustained and sometimes devastated lives, how it has provided places for entertainment and fun, and been witness to scenes of bravery and endeavour. A variety of documents can be seen from a range of periods throughout history, covering subjects from smuggling and sea-bathing to shipwrecks and coastal defence. A series of photographs are also on display, mostly taken in the early 20th century, showing fascinating views of the landscape and scenes of tourism and industry in Kent’s coastal towns and villages.

Appendix Two – Kent and Medway Housing Strategy
Appendix Two – Kent and Medway Housing Strategy Case Study - THROWLEY LOCAL NEEDS AFFORDABLE HOUSING The project to develop this local-needs housing scheme on a rural exception site in Throwley began with Sheldwich, Badlesmere and Leaveland Parish Council supporting a Parish Housing Needs Survey in February 2012, undertaken by the Rural Housing Enabler from Action with Communities in Rural Kent, funded by Swale Borough Council. The survey identified a need for four affordable homes. Due to the fairly low level of housing need it was decided to ask the adjacent parish if they would be interested in investigating the possibility of a joint scheme. Throwley Parish Council was therefore approached by the Rural Housing Enabler (RHE) and they agreed; the RHE carried out a survey in March 2013. The survey identified a need for 3 affordable homes. Both Parish Councils worked with the RHE to search for a suitable site on which to build a local needs housing scheme and some eight sites were identified in 2014. Both Parish Councils agreed that the site at Leaveland Corner was the most appropriately located site. Planning Officers were concerned it was a little remote (although interestingly the site is adjacent to council houses built by Swale BC in the 50s) and Planning Officers preferred a site in Sheldwich. However, this site relied on additional land from a local landowner and he was only prepared to make it available if he was granted permission for open market housing as well. The Parish Councils were not prepared to support this and following discussions, the Planning Officer agreed to support the Leaveland Corner site.
