  • H Boorman & Co
    Tenterden and District Newsletter Local History Society No. 27 October 2015 Founded 25th November 1955 H BOORMAN & Co H Boorman & Co was situated at 2 and 4 West Cross, at the west end of Tenterden High Street. The shop which could have been regarded as the ‘Harrods of the Weald’ was situated in 18th century buildings which were nearly all demolished about 1977 except for that part now run by the Orvis store. The rest of the site was then redeveloped into what is now known as Caxton Close. The business, founded in 1819 by Mr Samuel Boorman, rapidly prospered and expanded under his son Henry’s control. At various times the firm had branches in Headcorn, Benenden, Smarden, Appledore, Wittersham, Bethersden, Rolvenden and Iden Green. ‘Value for Money’ was the company motto and at its peak employed some 40 people, some of whom lived on the premises. They served everything from a bag of sugar to a hat, ran a horse drawn funeral service and could completely furnish your home. The business survived for 153 years before closing in February 1973. In the last week shoppers were able to buy groceries at ten per cent less whilst there was an auction of the contents of the drapery and furnishing departments. At the time of its closure all the branches had closed and the firm had roughly 20 employees. In 1973 most of the commercial activity of the town was at the other end of the town and another factor in its closure was because people were becoming more mobile and shopping in towns further a field which had a greater variety of shops.

  • Broadway Slip, Pluckley Road, Charing, Kent Design and Access Statement
    Outline Application Submission – Broadway Slip, Pluckley Road, Charing, Kent Design and Access Statement Introduction This document forms part of the outline application submission for the development of the land adjacent to The Old Corn Store, now otherwise known as Broadway Slip, to provide three new dwellings consisting of 2No. detached, three-bedroom chalet bungalows and 1No. two storey detached four-bedroom. The existing site is a dense tree lined strip of land positioned between The Old Corn Store and the Grade II listed Broadway Cottages. The vast majority of these trees are located outside of the site boundary and are believed to either be owned by the Local Authority or the land owners around the site. Existing Site The application site is located on Pluckley Road, Charing, approximately 0.5 miles from the centre of the village. The site is clearly defined with timber post and wire/mesh fencing to all four boundaries and measures approximately 2300 sqm in area. Site access for maintenance is via an existing temporary gate serviced by a drop kerb. The site boundary/gates in this location are set back approximately 4.9m from the edge of Pluckley Road. 1.0 Site Location Plan The application site, which was formerly part of the gardens to The Old Corn Store, has become scrub land in more recent years and is disused by the owners and can reasonably be defined as an infill site with clear definition of the residential curtilages of the adjacent properties continuing across the rear of the proposed development site. 1 Broadway cottages to the north-east of the site are a pair of Grade II listed late 18 th century – early 19 th century cottages, finished with timber weatherboarding and a hipped clay tile roof.
