At present the New Barn residential area is split between Dartford Borough, Sevenoaks District and Gravesham Borough; the part situated in Dartford is in the parish of ^outhfleet; the part in Sevenoaks is in the parish of Longfield, whilst the part in Gravesham is unparished. On 30 November 1979» Gravesham Borough Council requested ue to review the boundaries between the districts of Gravesham, Dartford and Sevenoaks in the vicinity of New Barn. Their request was in response to representations from the New Barn Ratepayers Association for the whole of the New Barn residential area to be incorporated within Gravesham Borough. The Association based their representations on a survey of opinion which they carried out in 1978 among the residents of New Barn on the question of whether the area should be under one authority, and if so, which one. The results indicated that a majority (8?#) of residents indicating a view preferred to see New Barn under one authority and a large proportion (6990 of these considered that this should be Gravesham. 2. We noted that Kent County Council, Dartford Borough Council, Sevenoaks District Council, and Longfield Parish Council were all opposed to a review beinp undertaken at that time, although Kent County Council and Dartford BOrough Council did a^ree that the current boundaries in the New Barn area were not wholly satisfactory.

  • Document in Detail: Diocese of Canterbury Medieval Fragments
    Issue 10, Summer 2018 Kent Archives is set for a busy summer. In this edition of our newsletter we introduce you to our joint project with Findmypast to digitise our parish register collection. The image in our header is from the first Cranbrook parish composite register [ref. P100/1/A/1], and is just one of the thousands of registers that will be digitised. We are also in the middle of transferring the remaining historic records of the Diocese of Canterbury from Canterbury Cathedral Archives to the Kent History and Library Centre to join its probate records, which have been held by Kent Archives since 1946. At the same time, archive cataloguing of one of Maidstone’s major papermaking collections is nearly complete; further World War I commemorative activities are underway; and work continues on the Catalogue Transfer Project and Manorial Documents Register Project for Kent. Document in Detail: Diocese of Canterbury Medieval Fragments [DCb/PRC/50/5] Mark Ballard, Archive Service Officer Among many other records of great value within the records of Canterbury Diocese are the ‘medieval fragments’ [DCb/PRC/49 and DCb/PRC/50], which in the post-Reformation period came to be used as covers, or ‘end-parchments’, for the probate registers. If we can judge by the dates of the act books and wills and inventories registers they covered, this recycling became a habit during the episcopate of Archbishop Matthew Parker (1559-1575). It is perhaps ironic that at precisely the time that Thomas Tallis and William Byrd, probably both closet Roman Catholics, were still being employed to write motets for the Chapel Royal, such disrespectful treatment was being accorded at Canterbury to their medieval predecessors.

  • The BBLHS Companion to Horsburgh's Bromley
    The BBLHS Companion to Horsburgh’s Bromley Being a transcription of notes added by William Baxter to Bromley From the earliest timest to the present century by E.L.S. Horsburgh published in 1929 with copies of the added pictures and drawings together with some additional information and explanation. ©Bromley Borough Local History Society 2017 Horsburgh’s Bromley Companion Introduction When Edward Horsburgh completed Bromley from the earliest times to the present century in 1929, it represented the culmination of many years work by a number of people. It was also rather late, having been intended to record the town’s history up to around 1900 and be published soon after! However, apart from the delay caused by the Great War, it is perhaps not surprising that being the result of work by a committee of local worthies, agreement on what should be included or excluded caused some dissension. Without the modern benefits of word processing, it was also more difficult to review and amend any text and it appears that the decision to publish was to an extent one of “now or never”. Following publication, one committee member at least, William Baxter, took some exception to the accuracy and range of the contents to the extent that he started making amendments and additions to the published text. These changes grew to such a point that he eventually dismembered a copy of the book, inserted his changes and had it rebound in two volumes. At the end of this Companion will be found a critique of the original book, which is well worth reading, as it points out Baxter’s somewhat ambivalent involvement and the books limitations which, sadly have not yet been rectified, in the topics covered and the way what was done was less than ideal.

The village of Hartley is situated in North West Kent about 20 miles south east of London within the Metropolitan Green Belt. It is 3 miles south of the A2, 4 miles east of the M25 and 3 miles north of the M20. The centre of Hartley is 1 mile south of Longfield Station on the main London to Dover Railway giving access to Bromley and the Medway Towns but not to Gravesend, Dartford and Sevenoaks.
