THE WALDEN LANDSCAPE IN THE EARLY SEVENTEENTH CENTERS AND ITS ANTECELENTS Thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the University of London by John Louis Mnkk Gulley 1960 ABSTRACT This study attempts to describe the historical geography of a confined region, the Weald, before 1650 on the basis of factual research; it is also a methodological experiment, since the results are organised in a consistently retrospective sequence. After defining the region and surveying its regional geography at the beginning of the seventeenth century, the antecedents and origins of various elements in the landscape-woodlands, parks, settlement and field patterns, industry and towns - are sought by retrospective enquiry. At two stages in this sequence the regional geography at a particular period (the early fourteenth century, 1086) is , outlined, so that the interconnections between the different elements in the region should not be forgotten.

  • Notes on Kentish Royal Arms
    Archaeologia Cantiana Vol. 79 1964 NOTES ON KENTISH ROYAL ARMS By V. J. B. TORE ABOUT thirty years ago some notes were compiled and published in Arch. Cant., xlv, 209-15, on certain royal arms in Kent which had recently received preservative treatment. I called attention to the slow- ness with which the subject had had any interest shown in it, up till then; and in the long interval since, it is only comparatively recently that it has begun to come into its own. Within about the last decade, a great deal has happened, and a number of English counties, particularly in the Midlands, has had lists compiled for the respective areas, addition- ally to much rescue and preservative work carried out on particular examples. If opportunity offers, I hope in due course to attempt a similar catalogue for Kent. But meanwhile it seems high time to record in these pages much that has occurred since the framing of the former list. I propose first to refer back to that list, supplying any necessary addenda et corregenda; then to set down particulars of later and recent preservative work; with a brief record of cases where something still remains to be done. 1. Hoo ST. WBEBXJEGH It is gratifying to correct the former statement that the two coats of Elizabeth I and James I were apparently lost. When last seen, both were existing, but instead of proper display in open church, I found them on the walls of the tower basement, with the further handicap that this is normally locked against visitors' entry, so that the arms can be seen only dimly and obliquely through glass which fills the arch.

  • Landscape Assessment of Kent 2004
    CHILHAM: STOUR VALLEY Location map: CHILHAMCHARACTER AREA DESCRIPTION North of Bilting, the Stour Valley becomes increasingly enclosed. The rolling sides of the valley support large arable fields in the east, while sweeps of parkland belonging to Godmersham Park and Chilham Castle cover most of the western slopes. On either side of the valley, dense woodland dominate the skyline and a number of substantial shaws and plantations on the lower slopes reflect the importance of game cover in this area. On the valley bottom, the river is picked out in places by waterside alders and occasional willows. The railway line is obscured for much of its length by trees. STOUR VALLEY Chilham lies within the larger character area of the Stour Valley within the Kent Downs AONB. The Great Stour is the most easterly of the three rivers cutting through the Downs. Like the Darent and the Medway, it too provided an early access route into the heart of Kent and formed an ancient focus for settlement. Today the Stour Valley is highly valued for the quality of its landscape, especially by the considerable numbers of walkers who follow the Stour Valley Walk or the North Downs Way National Trail. Despite its proximity to both Canterbury and Ashford, the Stour Valley retains a strong rural identity. Enclosed by steep scarps on both sides, with dense woodlands on the upper slopes, the valley is dominated by intensively farmed arable fields interspersed by broad sweeps of mature parkland. Unusually, there are no electricity pylons cluttering the views across the valley. North of Bilting, the river flows through a narrow, pastoral floodplain, dotted with trees such as willow and alder and drained by small ditches.
