The Blean Pick 'N' Mix Break
Pick n’ Mix Canterbury’s Woodland Pick n’ Mix... The Blean The Best of Canterbury’s Ancient Woodland This Country Break explores the woodlands and villages of The Blean, the area of ancient woodland between; Canterbury, Faversham, Whitstable, Herne Bay and the Marshes of Thanet. Whether you have just half a day, a day or the luxury of longer, a country break in the Blean offers the perfect woodland escape. Get a buzz from exploring or take things slower, whichever you choose the Blean never fails to deliver. In fact there is so much to do and experiences to choose from, it can seem a bit overwhelming, so just to keep things simple here are some ideas to enjoy the very best of the Blean and hopefully tempt you to explore further... For more ideas, see the the other country break itineraries or spend some time looking through the Blean website, its packed full of all the information you need... Find out more at www.theblean.co.uk Oak leaves 1 Half a day Take a walk in the woods... Pick any of the Blean Initiative circular walks, they take in a selection of areas across the Blean, but none are more than a few hours of walking and give a great insight 1 into the history and ecology as well as wearing out your boots! Explore the woodlands on your own! Don’t worry its tough to get lost, but you could easily spend a few hours roaming Clowes Wood with its easy access paths, or take 2 on the Wildart trail in Thornden woods, both are quick and easy and accessible for everyone! Grab your binoculars and a picnic before taking to the way-marked paths in the Blean Woods National Nature Reserve for a few hours rambling and bird-watching. -
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. -

Swale’S Coast
The Kent Coast Coastal Access Report This document is part of a larger document produced by Kent Area of the Ramblers’ Association and should not be read or interpreted except as part of that larger document. In particular every part of the document should be read in conjunction with the notes in the Introduction. In no circumstances may any part of this document be downloaded or distributed without all the other parts. Swale’s Coast 4.4 Swale’s Coast 4.4.1 Description 4.4.1.1 Sw ale’s coast starts at TQ828671 at Otterham Quay. It extends for 115 km to TR056650 on Graveney Marshes to the w est of The Sportsman pub. It takes in the Isle of Sheppey w hich is connected to the mainland by tw o bridges at Sw ale. It is the longest coastline in Kent. 4.4.1.2 Approximately 55 km is on PRoWs, 27 km is de facto access (though some is difficult walking) and 33 km is inaccessible to w alkers. The majority of the 27 km of inaccessible coast does not appear to be excepted land. From the Coastal Access aspect it is the most complicated coastline in Kent. Part of the mainland route is along the Saxon Shore Way. 4.4.1.3 The view to seaw ard at the start is over the Medw ay estuary. There are extensive saltings and several uninhabited islands. The route then follows the River Sw ale to Sheppey and back to the Medw ay Estuary. The north and east coasts of Sheppey look out to the Thames Estuary. -

Annex B Formal Objections to Traffic Regulation Order the Street
ANNEX B FORMAL OBJECTIONS TO TRAFFIC REGULATION ORDER THE STREET/CANTERBURY ROAD, BOUGHTON-UNDER-BLEAN/DUNKIRK FORMAL OBJECTION 1 ****** *** The Street Boughton-under-Blean Kent ME13 *** Dear Sirs RE: Objection to the Double Yellow Lines - The Street, Boughton-under-Blean I would like to formally object to the planed double yellow lines to be placed along 'The Street' in Boughton-under-Blean. Having recently bought *** The Street (a 3 bedroom house) we only have 2 parking spaces and therefore, reply on the parking along 'The Street'. I'm aware that the Cabinet have meet and stated that because more people had agreed to the proposal, by only 3 I would like to add, there were still 8 people who objected to it and those were the residents who live along 'The Street' and therefore, this should not go ahead based on the fact that the majority was only in favour by 3 more than who objected to it as that it not a high enough percentage given that the 11 who were in favour do not all live along 'The Street'. There is not enough parking for all the Woodmans Hall flats and houses which are joined to Woodmans Hall. Therefore, occasional parking is required along 'The Street' which is mainly used of an evening or at the weekend. If Yellow lines are placed there then this will just mean that more people will have to park further down in the village which is already busy enough with cars and will cause an inconvenience. I would like the Joint Transport Board to take note of what Kent County Council have suggested and to only do a short area of Double Yellow Lines to still allow some parking, yet how the Cabinet have dismissed this, which surly should not be right.
