  • Dunkirk and Denstroude
    A Battle of Bossenden (bosci/bocage - woody) On May 31st 1838 the battle of Bossenden Wood was fought near this spot. This was the era of the Tolpuddle martyrs and rural unrest was widespread. Here a group of disaffected country labourers, led by a madman who called himself Sir William Courtenay fought militiamen 1 from Canterbury. The soldiers were attempting to restore law and order after Courtenay had murdered Nicholas Mears, a man who 4 was helping his brother in his duties as local constable. The bodies of those who were killed in the engagement were taken to The Red Lion, 2 Dunkirk (where you may learn more about these events). Courtenay had believed himself to be the Messiah and therefore immortal. His body was laid out in the stables for all to see! 3 B Denstroude Farm (den - pig pasture, strood - marshy place) CIrcULAR WALK NO 3 You are now at Denstroude, an isolated place to where those suffering from The Black Death in Canterbury were banished in medieval times. Superstition took over and in later centuries the land was farmed Dunkirk and very little. Consequently, when persecuted Huguenots arrived from Denstroude France in the late seventeenth century they were allowed to settle here. Huguenot Farm lies to your east and the Huguenot Chapel in If you have enjoyed this walk why not try the others in this series?

  • The Blean Active Break
    Active Canterbury’s Woodland An Active Break in... The Blean Canterbury’s Ancient Woodland This Country Break explores the woodlands and villages of The Blean, the area of ancient woodland between; Canterbury, Faversham, Whitstable, Herne Bay and the Marshes of Thanet. Woodlands form the heart of The Blean covering over 3,000 hectares and it remains as one of the most extensive woodlands in the south east of England. This is ancient woodland and is particularly rich and diverse in wildlife, so much so that large areas are specially protected as Nature Reserves or Sites of Special Scientific Interest. The Blean's very nature makes it superb for plenty of outdoor activities, but it really is a walking haven, But cyclists aren't forgotten here either with not only the Crab & Winkle way (part of National Cycle Route 1), but also plenty of great rides through the woods and beyond to the coast. There are a number of routes allowing you to discover many of the less well known parts of the Blean too and you don't need to provide your own bikes, local company Canterbury Cycle Hire provides a range of bikes for all needs. You can hire a bike per hour, day or week, one way or return to any of their hubs in Canterbury, Whitstable and Herne Bay. Find out more at www.theblean.co.uk Oak leaves 1 An Active Break This break is based on exploring the Blean by bike, which you can hire from Canterbury Cycle Hire in Canterbury, Herne Bay or Whitstable.

  • Bulletin BMIG 28
    Bulletin of the British Myriapod & Isopod Group Volume 28 (2015) REPORT ON THE BMIG FIELD MEETING IN KENT 2011 Paul Lee1, A. D. Barber2 and Steve J. Gregory3 1 Little Orchard, Bentley, Ipswich, Suffolk IP9 2DW, UK. E-mail: [email protected] 2 Rathgar, Exeter Road, Ivybridge, Devon PL21 0BD, UK. E-mail: [email protected] 3 200 Ock Street, Abingdon, Oxfordshire OX14 5DR, UK. E-mail: [email protected] INTRODUCTION The 2011 BMIG field weekend, held from 14th to 17th April, was based at the University of Kent at Canterbury. The county has been extensively recorded for myriapods and isopods over the last century and in his introductory talk Eric Philp presented attendees with a species list for Kent along with a challenge to add even a single species so confident was he of the effort that had gone in to ensuring that recording in the county was comprehensive. However, the main purpose of this meeting, one for which a Defra grant had been awarded through Hymettus, was a systematic survey for what were then UK BAP species, the millipedes Polyzonium germanicum and Metaiulus pratensis both of which are Kent specialities. Late thirteenth century archaeological deposits from Stonar (north of Sandwich) provide the earliest woodlouse record from Kent in the form of calcified remains of Porcellio laevis (Girling, 1979). George Newport (1803 – 1854), one of the pioneers of myriapod studies in Britain, was born at Canterbury and published important papers on these animals between 1841 and 1856. His original description of Lithobius melanops was based on specimens actually collected by him from a garden at Sandwich in 1842.

  • Forward Works Programme
    A safer, more sustainable and more resilient highway network Appendix C Forward Works Programme 2021/22 to 2025/26 1 Introduction This document sets out our five-year Forward Works Programme for the years 2021/22 to 2025/26. It reflects the need to move away from annual programmes and to consider asset management activity a multi-year one. It is in two parts: the first concerns the next two years (2021/22 - 2022/23), and most of the sites included have already been verified by our engineers. The second part relates to years three to five of our five-year programme (2023/24 - 2025/26), and is largely based on data from our asset management systems, so may be subject to more changes as the schemes are verified. Any schemes involving the potential use of non-standard materials, such as those in conservation areas, or requiring detailed design will remain in the second part until those elements have been resolved and agreed, so that there is cost certainty prior to any commitment to deliver on the ground. This programme is subject to regular review and may change for a number of reasons including budget allocation, contract rate changes, conflicting works and to reflect our changing priorities. The programme and extent of individual sites within the programme may also be revised following engineering assessment during the design phase, and additional sites may be added or others advanced if their condition deteriorates rapidly so that we need to react in order to keep the highway in a safe and serviceable condition.

  • 600 Transposals of Uk Place Names
    182 600 TRANSPOSALS OF UK PLACE NAMES DARRYL FRANCI Sutton. Surrey, England [email protected] The May 1990 issue of Word Ways carried an article of mine entitled "London Wordplay". This was an examination of trans po sa Is, transadditions, beheadments and a variety of other wordplay bascd on placc namcs in and around London, England. I recently decided to take a trip a virtual trip around Great Britain (England, Scotland, Wales) to search for place names that had genuine English-language transposals. I wanted to get away from the London emphasis of my earlier article and discover transposals of place names out around the country. Transposals of some of the larger British cities and towns have appeared in Word Ways and othcr sourccs beforc (e.g. MANCHESTER searchmcnt, LA CASTER ancestral), and I didn' t particularly want to rehash those here. I concentrated on lesser-known places. Indeed, most of the place names mentioned in this article were unknown to me. I uscd LeXpert, the Scrabble playcr' s software tool, to heIp me find transposals. I could have searched Web ter's Third as well, but decided not to, in order to keep things relatively simple. 0 all the transposals presented in the following list are courtesy of LeXpert, with four (asterisked) exceptions.
