  • Ightham Mote: Topographical Analysis of the Landscape
    8 IGHTHAM MOTE: TOPOGRAPHICAL ANALYSIS OF THE LANDSCAPE Matthew Johnson, Timothy Sly, Carrie Willis1 Abstract. This chapter reports on survey at Ightham Mote in 2013 and 2014, and puts the survey results in the context of a wider analysis of the Ightham landscape. Ightham is another late medieval building surrounded by water features, whose setting might be seen as a ‘designed landscape’. Here, we outline and evaluate the evidence for the landscape as it developed through time. As with the other buildings and landscapes discussed in this volume, rather than argue for either an exclusively utilitarian or exclusively aesthetic view, we provide an alternative framework with which to explore the way that barriers and constraints on movement in physical space reflect boundaries in social space. Rather than labelling a landscape aesthetic or practical, we can identify the practices and experiences implicated in landscapes, and their active role in social relations. Ightham Mote is the fourth late medieval building and landscape to be discussed in this volume (Fig. 8.1; for location see Fig. 1.1). Like the others, Ightham is a National Trust property. The buildings consist of an inner and outer court, whose ‘footprint’ and external appearance was probably substantially complete by the end of the Middle Ages. The standing structure is a patchwork of different building phases from the early 14th century to the present day. Most recently, the building went through a comprehensive conservation programme costing over ten million pounds, and involving the controlled disassembly and reconstruction of large parts of the house. The information revealed by this process enabled others to put together a very detailed outline of the development of the house from Fig.

  • Past and Present
    BOROUGH GREEN PAST & PRESENT Train at station CHAPTER ONE Early Life, Folks and Fauna Borough Green is situated around the junction of what is now the A25 and A227. This was the origin of the hamlet, an ideal spot for wheelwrights, blacksmiths and inns. The Roman Military Way Westward was the forerunner of the A25. Traders and merchandise from Gravesend proceeding to Tonbridge and beyond were the source of the A227 route. It was formed as a civil parish under the Kent Review Order of 1934. Prior to this it was part Wrotham and part Ightham and it is in their records that some history can be found. Its name has had various spellings over the years – Barrow Green, 1575, 1587, Boroe Green 1594, Burrough Green, 1697, Burrow Green, 1713. The exact source of the name is unknown. The original parish of Wrotham was divided into six boroughs, Town, Stansted, Nepicar, Winfield, Roughwaye and Hale. It is thought that Borough Green was the site for games and sports for the area, not a village green, but a “Borough Green”. Another theory is that it was Barrow Green, of which there is some evidence. A further theory is that it was Boroe Green from the Anglo Saxon for a place of refuge. A number of Roman cinerary urns were unearthed on Barrow Field, off Staley’s Road in 1839. On a farm, belonging to a Mr. Biggs at Borough Green, some labourers came upon a cinerary deposit, about the year 1839. Several of the urns were taken home by an old man working on the spot, but as this act was followed by bad luck or ill-health, he buried them in the garden.

  • Enc. 1 for Flood Risk Alleviation , Item 181
    The Medway Flood Partnership The Medway Flood Partnership was established in January 2017 and brings together local partners, national agencies, non-governmental organisations and community representatives with the aim of reducing flood risk within the Medway catchment and create better places for people, properties and businesses. The partnership brings together senior representatives from the following organisations: • Environment Agency • Country Land and Business Association • Joint Parish Flood Group • Forestry Commission • Kent County Council • Kent Association of Local Councils • National Farmers Union • Maidstone Borough Council • Sevenoaks District Council • Natural England • Southern Water • South East Rivers Trust • Tunbridge Wells Borough Council • Tonbridge and Malling Borough Council • Upper Medway Internal Drainage Board Reducing the risk of flooding in the Medway catchment is a complex problem that is best solved by working in partnership. During the December 2013 flood event, approximately 965 homes were flooded across the Medway catchment, devastating people and livelihoods. Over 9,000 properties across the Medway catchment are at risk of river flooding with more at risk from other sources such as surface water or sewer flooding. The flood action plan was first published at the end of 2017 and sets out what partner organisations will do to reduce flood risk in the short term. While this flood action plan is a significant milestone in addressing flood risk in the Medway catchment, it is part of a longer journey with the partnership, communities and with individuals to build awareness and preparedness for flooding, and identify and develop more actions which can help to reduce flood levels. Over the coming years, the partnership will continue to work with communities to develop this plan further and consider the 25 year vision and the pathway to getting there.
