  • Parish of Postling
    PARISH OF POSTLING ANNUAL PARISH MEETING 2016 DRAFT Minutes of Postling Annual Parish Meeting held at Parish Village Hall on Wednesday 25 May 2016 starting at 7.30pm. PRESENT: Cllr Frank Hobbs (Chair), Cllr Christine Hobbs, Cllr John Elphick, Cllr Helen Calderbank, Jo Maher (Clerk), County District Councillor Susan Carey, KALC Chairman Ray Evison, Clive Adsett, Christine Webb, Tony Van Eldik, Marieke Van Eldik, Pat Elphick, Jan Wood, Derek Wood, Jenny Mannion 1) APOLOGIES: District Councillor Jenny Hollingsbee, Cllr John Pattrick, Cllr Charlie Wilkins, Cllr Jane Reynolds, Chris Reynolds, Gill Dixon 2) MINUTES OF THE PREVIOUS MEETING: The Minutes of the previous Annual Parish Meeting held on Wednesday 20 May 2015 were approved and signed by the Chair. This was proposed by Cllr Elphick, seconded by Cllr Christine Hobbs and unanimously agreed. 3) CHAIRMAN’s REPORT: Your Parish Council had another busy year. We are currently threatened by major developments in the area. The on-going consultation about the lorry park at Junction 11 was expected to report some time ago on the preferred site, but there is no news yet, and now probably won’t be released until after the referendum. This could have a knock-on effect on the sand extraction site if they chose Option 2. And now there is the proposal from Shepway DC for a “garden town” running on the southern side of the motorway from Junction 11 to the western edge of Sellindge, no doubt Cllr Carey will enlighten us more in her report. We have been invited to a meeting at SDC early next month, along with the other affected parishes, to be briefed fully on the proposed project.

  • Some Problems of the North Downs Trackway in Kent
    http://kentarchaeology.org.uk/research/archaeologia-cantiana/ Kent Archaeological Society is a registered charity number 223382 © 2017 Kent Archaeological Society SOME PROBLEMS OF THE NORTH DOWNS TRACKWAY IN KENT By REV. H. W. R. Liman, S.J., M.A.(0xon.) THE importance of this pre-historic route from the Continent to the ancient habitat of man in Wiltshire has long been recognized. In the Surrey Archceological Collections of 1964 will be found an attempted re-appraisal of its route through the county of Surrey. Although the problems connected with its passage through Kent are fewer owing to its being better preserved, there are some points which I think still deserve attention—the three river crossings of the Darenth, the Medway and the Stour; the crossing of the Elham valley; and the passage to Canterbury of the branch route from Eastwell Park, known as the Pilgrims' Way. It may be worth while, before dealing with the actual crossings, to note a few general characteristics. Mr. I. D. Margary—our most eminent authority on ancient roads in Britain—has pointed out the dual nature of this trackway. It com- prises a Ridgeway and a Terraceway. The first runs along the crest of the escarpment. The second runs parallel to it, usually at the point below the escarpment where the slope flattens out into cultivation. In Kent for the most part the Terraceway has survived more effectually than the Ridgeway. It is for much of its length used as a modern road, marked by the familiar sign 'Pilgrims' Way'. Except at its eastern terminus the Ridgeway has not been so lucky, although it can be traced fairly accurately by those who take the trouble to do so.

Save all those things that you sorted out at the start of the year - Save all those things that you find in your Spring Sort Out and even, dare we say - unwanted Christmas presents ! Turn them all into cash for your Summer Holiday. Don’t forget that you can have a table at the Village Hall for the same price - and there will be refreshments available there, at very reasonable prices, during the day !! Garden Safari and Lyminge Festival is due to take place over the week-end of 15th and 16th June. Also planned is a Flower Festival at the Parish Church and an Art Exhibition at the Tayne Centre. Did you know - that as a resident in Lyminge, Etchinghill, Rhodes Minnis and Postling you are automatically a member of the Lyminge Association ? The Association is very keen to welcome anyone who would like to help with one of the many events that it organises. Would you like to help maintain the TROUGHS that the Lyminge Association has positioned at the Woodland Road/Brady Road crossroads and Yew Tree Cross or help on our stall on Lyminge Day on 11th May or perhaps the Coronation Variety Show being planned for September might be just what you would like to do. We need people to perform and to assist with the production. Do we have a local Magician ? Are you in a local pop group or do you have Performing Ferrets ! Please call Adrian on 862699.
