  • 1993 112 Kentish Rag and Other Kent Building Stones Worssam.Pdf
    http://kentarchaeology.org.uk/research/archaeologia-cantiana/ Kent Archaeological Society is a registered charity number 223382 © 2017 Kent Archaeological Society KENTISH RAG AND OTHER KENT BUILDING STONES BERNARD C. WORSSAM and TIM TATTON-BROWN The name Kentish Rag, or Ragstone, suggests a building stone suitable only for rough walling purposes, a view expressed, for example, by Howe (1910, 264), who wrote of Kentish Rag: 'It has been extensively used in churches in the Home Counties in the form of random and coursed work; it cannot be dressed . .' From earlier periods than Howe's time of writing there are, however, many examples of dressed stonework as well as of ashlar and window tracery in Kentish Rag. It is one purpose of this paper to draw attention to the varied ways in which the stone has been used from time to time. Kentish Rag varies in lithology along its outcrop, such that it is possible in the case of many buildings to deduce the location from which their stone has been derived. Certain Middlesex churches (Robinson and Worssam 1990) provide instances. The paper, therefore, starts with an account of the geology of Kentish Rag. Descriptions are also included of three types of stone with some resemblance to Kentish Rag: the well-known Reigate stone, from Surrey; Folkestone stone, which is rarely recognised as a building stone; and Thanet Beds sandstone from east Kent, so little regarded that it has no familiar local name. THE GEOLOGY OF KENTISH BUILDING STONES Kentish Rag occurs in the Hythe Beds formation, which is part of the Lower Greensand, a group of formations of Lower Cretaceous age (see Table 1).

  • 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.

    1661-5468 VOL. 32, N° 2, 2013 Revue de Paléobiologie, Genève (décembre 2013) 32 (2): 385-404 ISSN 0253-6730 On the taxonomy and diversity of Wealden iguanodontian dinosaurs (Ornithischia: Ornithopoda) David B. NORMAN1 Abstract The taxonomy of Wealden-aged iguanodontians is reviewed in the light of recent publications that indicate higher levels of taxonomic diversity existed compared to estimates from the recent past. Of the seventeen taxonomic names that have been suggested to date, four represent taxonomically valid morphological types: Barilium dawsoni, Hypselospinus fittoni, Iguanodon bernissartensis and Mantellisaurus atherfieldensis. The other thirteen taxonomic names are either objectively synonymous with one or other of the valid taxa, or are nomina dubia. The recent spate of taxonomic proposals appear to be driven by a belief that greater diversity must exist within the Wealden succession (Weald: Hastings and Weald Clay Groups; Wessex: Wealden Group) given that it spanned approximately 20 million years of geological time. However, critical evaluation of the actual material, and the stratigraphic levels from which specimens have been collected in the Wealden geological succession, confirms the imperfect nature of the fossil record. As a consequence fossil collectors have only been able to sample two comparatively time-restricted horizons: one in the middle Valanginian (~138-136 Ma), the other in the middle-upper Barremian-lowermost Aptian (~128-125 Ma). The plethora of new, yet invalid, taxonomic names suggests some inconsistency in the maintenance of standards associated with good taxonomic practice. The dangers inherent in allowing poor taxonomic practice to generate false measures of fossil diversity are outlined. Keywords Iguanodon, Iguanodontia, Dinosauria, Taxonomy, Diversity, Wealden, Stratigraphy.
