  • Dymchurch Martello Tower No 24 KENT
    English Heritage Dymchurch Martello Tower No 24 KENT J G LOAD MA, FSA Inspector of Ancient Monuments Between 1793 and 1815 Britain was at War with the French Republic. After his campaigns in Italy, Egypt and Syria, Napoleon Bonaparte began extensive preparations to invade England. To counter the threatened invasion, the English built a chain of 74 Martello gun-towers along the Channel shores of Kent and East Sussex between 1805 and 1812. Of those that survive today, the Martello tower at Dymchurch is perhaps the best preserved. Fully restored and open to the public, it is dominated by an original 24-pounder gun carrying the cipher of King George III.

The Peace of Amiens, signed in March 1802, had ended nine years of war with Revolutionary France, but Napoleon's territorial ambitions in Europe and elsewhere were to ensure that peace was short-lived.

  • Serious Operating Irregularity at Romney Sands, 28 August 2019 Important Safety Messages
    Serious operating irregularity at Romney Sands, 28 August 2019 Important safety messages This incident highlights the particular risk associated with the operation of single line railways which are worked with the tablet and ticket system. More generally the incident demonstrates the importance of: • using suitable communications protocols to help reach a clear understanding about what actions are required • recognising that while people are being trained, they may be more likely to make incorrect decisions, especially in situations which are outside the normal routine • having systems and processes in place which can provide additional safeguards when safe operations otherwise rely on the actions of people. Summary of the incident At around 10:37 hrs, a passenger train left Romney Sands station, Kent, on the Romney, Hythe and Dymchurch Railway, going towards New Romney, and entered a single line section of track. When the train had travelled about 100 metres beyond the station, the driver saw another train coming towards him on the single line. He used the railway’s open channel radio system to send an emergency “stop” message, stopping his train as he did so. The driver of the other train heard the message and also stopped. The two trains came to a stand about 316 metres apart. No-one was hurt. Rail Accident Investigation Branch Safety digest 08/2019: Romney Sands Train 12 and the driver, stationmaster and trainee stationmaster in conversation at Romney Sands station before the incident (courtesy RHDR) Cause of the incident The single line section between New Romney and Romney Sands is two miles (3.2 km) long and is worked on the tablet and ticket system.

  • Notes on the Probable Course of the Roman Road from Lympne to Dover
    Archaeologia Cantiana Vol. 62 1949 NOTES ON THE PROBABLE COURSE OF THE ROMAN ROAD FROM LYMPNE TO DOVER By IVAN D. MARGARY, F.S.A. THE existence of a Roman road connecting Lympne with. Dover is attested by its actual appearance upon the diagrammatic map known as the Peutinger Table. No traces of the road had, however, been identified, and the growth of Folkestone and its outskirts has now put much of the probable route beyond direct investigation. Some notes were put forward by the late S. E. Winbolt in his book Roman Folkestone (Methuen, 1925) as a tentative approach to the subject, and it was with a view to testing these on the ground that the present investigation was made. There is general agreement that the existing road along the old cliffs at Lympne represents the Roman road. East of Shipway Cross it bends a good deal and is probably an old ridgeway track rather than an engineered road, but there seems no reason to disregard it as a part of the route on that account. We thus arrive at the crossing of the Brockhill Stream, just at the western entry to Hythe, and it seems clear that the trackway is directly continued by an old lane, now in part only a footpath, straight up the hill north-eastwards to Saltwood, making no doubt for the hills inland. Consideration of the eastward course of a Roman road from this point is very largely determined by the topography, which here shows marked features some of which would entirely preclude the making of a direct road.

Summary The Romney Marsh has a unique historic landscape that has evolved over thousands of years. It is now the largest coastal wetland on the southern coast of England and is well known for its natural beauty, diverse habitats and wildlife, rich heritage and extensive coastline. Its long and complex natural history is primarily one of land reclamation and the ongoing battle to manage and retain this land. A number of distinctive features are present throughout its iconic landscape that reflect a rich local heritage that is primarily centred on this battle for land drainage and coastal defence as well as a rich agricultural heritage, wartime defences, maritime heritage and the medieval churches of the Marsh. Its landscape is predominantly characterised by its openness and wildness and is unique in the county. 2. Introduction Since the end of the last Ice Age around 11,500 years ago, the Kent coast has been extensively modified by generally rising sea levels.

  • Martello Towers of Romney Marsh
    Introduction Martello Towers, sometimes known simply as Martellos, are small defensive forts that were built across the British Empire during the 19th century, from the time of the Napoleonic Wars onwards. Many were built along the Kent coast to defend Britain against the French in the early 1800s, then under the rule of Napoleon Bonaparte. Given that the Romney Marsh beaches are just 29 miles away from the French Coast across the English Channel, it was one of the areas that was most at risk from invasion by Napoleon's forces. Originally 103 towers were built in England between 1805 and 1812’. 74 were built along the Kent and Sussex coastlines from Folkestone to Seaford between 1805 and 1808, the other 29 to protect Essex and Suffolk. 45 of the towers still remain, but many are in ruins or have been converted, and only 9 remain in their (almost) original condition. Along the coastline of Romney Marsh, from Dymchurch Redoubt, south of Hythe, to St Mary's Bay, there were 9 Martello Towers built. Martello Towers Nos. 19, 20, 21, 22, 26 and 27 have since been demolished, but Towers Nos. 23, 24,and 25 still remain. Index Introduction……………………….. Page 2 Origins and Purpose……………..

  • How Lyminge Parish Church Acquired an Invented Dedication
    ANTIQUARIANS, VICTORIAN PARSONS AND RE-WRITING THE PAST: HOW LYMINGE PARISH CHURCH ACQUIRED AN INVENTED DEDICATION ROBERT BALDWIN For more than a century, the residents of Lyminge, on the North Downs in East Kent, have taken for granted that the parish church is dedicated to St Mary and St Ethelburga. Yet for many centuries before that, it was known as the church of St Mary and St Eadburg. The dedication to St Mary, the Virgin, is ancient and straightforward to explain, for it appears in the earliest of the surviving charters forLyminge dated probably to 697. 1 The second part of the dedication, whether this is correctly St Ethelburga or St Eadburg, is also likely to pre-date the Norman Conquest for both are clearly Anglo-Saxon names. But the uncertainty over the dedication invites investigation to understand who the patron saint actually is and the cause of the change, which is an unusual event by any standards. At first sight, St Ethelburga is apparently also easy to explain. Although there were a number of St Ethelburgas, the one traditionally connected with Lyminge was Queen LEthelburh2, daughter of LEthelberht I, King of Kent, and widow of Edwin, King of Northumbria. The story of her marriage to Edwin, his conversion to Christianity and the beginning of the conversion of Northumbria in the 620s was recorded by Bede, writing around a century later.3 AfterEdwin's death in battle in 633, Bede noted that LEthelburh returned to Kent where her brother Eadbald had become king. Other sources4 recounted that the king allowed his sister to retire to his estate at Lyminge where she established a 'minster'5 and subsequently died in 647.6 A dedication to St Ethelburga makes sense in the historical context ofLyminge.

MCA 10: Hythe and East Wear Bays Overall cShnaarpaschteort Key Characteristics Description Visual Resource Mapping Location and boundaries The boundaries of the Marine Character Area (MCA) are defined in the south by the low lying shingle foreland of Dungeness and in the north by the change in geology from the mudstones and clays of this MCA to the chalk bedrock of MCA 11 (outcroping at the coast as the White Cliffs of Dover). The seaward boundary of the MCA is broadly consistent with the boundary of the South Inshore Marine Plan Area, representing the 12 nautical mile territorial limit and bathymetry of approximately 30m, and the transition to the main channel shipping lanes of the Dover Strait. The MCA is covered by Shoreline Management Plan area 11: South Foreland to Beachy Head. Please note that the MCA boundaries represent broad zones of transition (not immediate breaks in character). Natural, visual, cultural and socio- economic relationships between adjacent MCAs play a key role in shaping overall character. Therefore individual MCAs should not be considered in isolation.

Summary The district is rich in archaeological evidence beginning from the first occupations by early humans in Britain 800,000 years ago through to the twentieth century. The archaeological remains are in many forms such as ruins, standing monuments and buried archaeology and all attest to a distinctive Kentish history as well as its significant geographical position as a gateway to the continent. Through the district’s archaeology it is possible to track the evolution of Kent as well as the changing cultures, ideas, trade and movement of different peoples into and out of Britain. The District’s role in the defence of the country is also highlighted in its archaeology and forms an important part of the archaeological record for this part of the British southern coastline.
