  • 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part of that project is reported upon elsewhere1 whilst much of the later history of the mill has been covered in an unpublished study,2 which its author generously made available.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.

The necessary form can be downloaded from the website at www.kentarchaeology.ac 1 THE PAPERMAKERS OF SNODLAND c.1740-1854 ANDREW ASHBEE Preamble There are already two excellent studies of Snodland Paper Mill1, so it may seem presumptuous to add a third. Between them Alfred Shorter2, Michael Fuller and Kenneth Funnell have thoroughly researched the surviving records and there is probably little more to find in official documentary sources. It is very regrettable that the extensive Snodland Mill records, which had survived the devastating fire of 12 August 1906, were all pulped in the mid-twentieth century before they could be examined by historians. So this paper turns rather to genealogical sources concerning the early owners and papermakers, which reveal a fascinating web of connections between people and places. The arrival of the Hook family in 1854-5 makes a suitable end; they took the Snodland mill into expansive and profitable development. Papermakers seem to have moved regularly from mill to mill and Snodland mill (like many others) was often but a stepping-stone for both owners and employees. Movement between local mills is of course to be expected - and there were many in the Maidstone area, but so far as Snodland is concerned there are also strong links with the principal papermaking area in England: the Wye valley in Buckinghamshire, where more than thirty mills were active in the early nineteenth century.

Ryarsh is a small village with a thriving community spirit. Residents take pride in their local community, pulling together to support village fund raising and tackle local issues. It seems wholly un-natural to split the village into two wards, when Ryarsh as it is, demonstrates the core values of local village life. Surely a thriving village community is far more important than balancing electoral numbers. We feel splitting the village in to two wards would impact negatively on the village and for this reason we object to the proposal.
