  • The Warren Farm Chamber: a Reconsideration
    http://kentarchaeology.org.uk/research/archaeologia-cantiana/ Kent Archaeological Society is a registered charity number 223382 © 2017 Kent Archaeological Society THE WARREN FARM CHAMBER: A RECONSIDERATION PAUL ASHBEE At least seven ruined but recognisable stone-chambered long barrows, Kit's Coty House being the best known, still remain in the Medway valley where that river cuts through the chalk of the North Downs. They had exceptionally high rectangular chambers, proportional facades, and stone kerbs. In plan they recall the southern English earthen long barrows, originally of timber, such as Fussell's Lodge in Wiltshire (Ashbee 1966). They are distinct from other groups and are likely to have been versions of the stone-built long barrows of Holland and Northern Germany (Ashbee 1999). The Medway's megalithic long barrows (Fig. 1), like others of their kind, were surrogate long houses (Ashbee 1999, 270) and also repositories for human remains rather than mere tombs. There may have been centuries of recourse to them, before they were finally sealed with occupation debris (Piggott 1962, 26; Woodward 1993). Their construction with sarsen stones, some of almost Stonehenge calibre, required considerable labour, while they cannot but have fulfilled a central role for the Neolithic communities of the terrain that was to become Kent. Early in 1822 the great stones of a long barrow chamber's remnant part were encountered, just within the 300ft contour, and close by Warren Farm, on Blue Bell Hill (NGR TQ 753 606). An obstruction to ploughing had led to digging which disclosed large sarsen stones just below the surface. George Fowle, of Cobtree Manor, the landowner, ordered their removal, but when three uprights emerged he determined that they should be uncovered.

  • The Medway Megaliths and Neolithic Kent
    http://kentarchaeology.org.uk/research/archaeologia-cantiana/ Kent Archaeological Society is a registered charity number 223382 © 2017 Kent Archaeological Society THE MEDWAY MEGALITHS AND NEOLITHIC KENT* ROBIN HOLGATE, B.Sc. INTRODUCTION The Medway megaliths constitute a geographically well-defined group of this Neolithic site-type1 and are the only megalithic group in eastern England. Previous accounts of these monuments2 have largely been devoted to their morphology and origins; a study in- corporating current trends in British megalithic studies is therefore long overdue. RECENT DEVELOPMENTS IN BRITISH MEGALITHIC STUDIES Until the late 1960s, megalithic chambered barrows and cairns were considered to have functioned purely as tombs: they were the burial vaults and funerary monuments for people living in the fourth and third millennia B.C. The first academic studies of these monuments therefore concentrated on the typological analysis of their plans. This method of analysis, though, has often produced incorrect in- terpretations: without excavation it is often impossible to reconstruct the sequence of development and original appearance for a large number of megaliths. In addition, plan-typology disregards other aspects related to them, for example constructional * I am indebted to Peter Drewett for reading and commenting on a first draft of this article; naturally I take responsibility for all the views expressed. 1 G.E.

  • Visiting the Kent Countryside – a Guide for Parents of Children with Autism
    !"#"$%&'()*' +*%(',-.%(/0#"1* !"#$%&'"()*"+!*',-." )("/0%1&*',"2%-0"!$3.4 This booklet aims to help parents and carers of children with autism to access nature and the countryside in Kent. It should also prove useful to those living and working with adults with autism. The booklet represents the first in a series of projects to be undertaken by Autism and Nature, a new Social Enterprise. It begins by introducing some of the health benefits of nature and the countryside for children with autism. This is followed by a guide to ‘natural’ places to visit in the Kent countryside, which the authors believe many children with autism might enjoy. The booklet concludes with a series of case stories, describing visits to the countryside by school children with autism and related conditions.

  • Essex Area Update
    Essex Area Update Welcome to the June Edition of the Essex Area Update Lockdown Thoughts I suppose I’m lucky. No walking round public parks for me on my daily permitted exercise. Instead it’s out of the front door, walk 50 yards down the street, turn left and I’m on the Harcamlow Way. Cross the Cam (a trickle in this dry spring) and a few hundred yards later I can choose to go left towards Saffron Walden, straight ahead for Debden, or right for a circumnavigation of Newport. At this time of year, things change almost every day: there are different shades of green and fresh blossoms. Normally, even on a Sunday (if I can avoid the temptation of Sky Sports’ Premiership offerings), it would be rare to meet anyone. But now, whatever the time or day of the week, I keep meeting people. Some are in family groups, others couples or individuals. We always say hello, and sometimes strangers stop for an appropriately socially-distanced chat. This is unusual; it’s part of the etiquette for walkers to greet each other but we’re British and supposed to be reserved. One man insists on telling me about his obviously traumatic recent divorce. I listen politely and I’m happy to act as a sort of psychotherapist, but there’s part of me that’s a bit embarrassed. I guess he’s lonely and maybe I’m the only person he has spoken to in days. Hardly anyone I meet is what we ramblers would regard as properly shod; most are wearing trainers or less solid footwear, and I wonder how they would have got on if lockdown had happened a month earlier when the mud was ankle- deep.

  • 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.
