It identifies where development will take place and how the natural environment and built heritage of the Borough will be protected and enhanced. It allocates major sites and locations for housing and employment to meet the needs of our growing population and in accordance with national planning policy and practice. The Local Plan has been prepared at a time of change in the national planning policy system and has responded positively to the challenges this context has set. The preparation of the Local Plan has been a long and detailed process, taking into account the preparation of a detailed evidence base, numerous stages of consultation and an Examination in Public chaired by a Government Planning Inspector. The Inspector’s final recommendations have been incorporated into the plan. Councillor Gerry Lewin, Deputy Leader and Cabinet Member for Planning, Swale Borough Council I would like to take this opportunity to thank all the local residents and businesses, local groups and interested parties, statutory consultees, councillors and others who have contributed to the process and successful adoption of this Local Plan. We now believe we have a Local Plan that will meet development needs and deliver an ambitious vision for the Borough.

  • Two Kentish Hospitals Re-Examined: S. Mary, Ospringe, and Ss. Stephen and Thomas, New Romney*
    Archaeologia Cantiana Vol. 79 1964 TWO KENTISH HOSPITALS RE-EXAMINED: S. MARY, OSPRINGE, AND SS. STEPHEN AND THOMAS, NEW ROMNEY* By S. E. RIGOLD, F.S.A. THE hospitals here considered were both products of the great age of medieval hospital-founding, in the late twelfth and early thirteenth centuries. From that age fifteen out of the twenty-five known hospitals in Kent originate, five being earlier and five later. Perhaps more than any other of these (except the unfortunate house of Sweynester in Sittingbourne), these two were unable to adapt themselves to the changing conditions of the fourteenth century, yet they differed widely in purpose and status: Ospringe had royal patronage and performed several of the various functions later assigned to more specialized institutions that have inherited the name of hospital; Romney was of comparatively humble foundation and solely a refuge for lepers. Both houses have already been the subjects of detailed studies in Archceologia Cantiana, since when it has been part of the writer's official duty to investigate their physical remains and he has taken the oppor- tunity to submit the limited, documentary evidence, as it were, to a second pressing. It is this, rather than any attempt to test the relevance of two such divergent samples to the general problem of the social history of the medieval hospital, that is the reason for considering them together here. THE HOSPITAL OF ST. MARY OF OSPRINGE, COMMONLY CALLED MAISON DIETT The late Charles H. Drake published a valuable paper on this house in Arch. Cant., xxx (1913), pp.

  • Syndale Valley Walk • Earth, Wind and Water Protect Plants and Animals, and Take Your Litter Home
    PEACE, SOLITUDE: Syndale A RURAL WAY OF LIFE Valley Walk faversham.org/walking NEWNHAM – EASTLING – STALISFIELD – DODDINGTON Peace, solitude: a rural way of life “Enchant, stay Escape to a land that time forgot, where farming, food and rural traditions remain the cornerstones of community life among the beautiful and graceful, unspoilt and picturesque scenery of the Syndale Valley. but do this, eat well” Running through the mid Kent Downs – an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty – the chalk valley remains one of the few Charles Pierre Monselet timeless landscapes in this busy corner of Kent. Not without its own share of historic highlights and notoriety, your walk begins in the ancient settlement of Newnham, nestled in the Syndale Valley since at least the 12th century. Here the Romans grew grapes and James Pimm was born – creator of one of Britain’s best-loved summer drinks, the eponymous Pimms. The Revd. Granville Wheler proved the existence of electric current in 1725 at Otterden Place – just one of the grand homes that pepper your path as you make your way through ancient woods, working farmland and historic grazing pastures. Many of the woods on your route are still hunted by wildfowlers who sell their game to local butchers and restaurants, while others support the rural craft of coppicing - common in this area. Traditional coppicing of sweet chestnut shoots for fence stakes extends the life of the trees and floods the woodland floor with light in spring and summer, promoting an abundance of flowers and food for wildlife. As you pass back into sweeping open fields you may see kestrels and other birds of prey.

  • A Message from Your County Councillor - September 2018
    A Message from your County Councillor - September 2018 As ever, Local Government’s quietest month August was followed by the busiest September. Thank goodness for two full days at the Hop Festival joined this year, for the first time, by my eldest grandson on day one. Local meetings and issues have dominated this month. These have included further meetings with residents together with Kent Highways to discuss flooding in Lynsted, Doddington and Bapchild. Some works have already been undertaken, a lot more are in the pipeline if you will excuse the pun. I have continued to visit Parish Councils to discuss the update to Swale’s Corporate Plan. This month we have debated with Parish Councillors and residents at Ospringe, Rodmersham, Hartlip, Dunkirk and Minster on Sheppey. In addition to these I have made my regular visits to Tunstall, Eastling, Sheldwich, Badlesmere and Leaveland, Selling and Stalisfield Parish Councils. I also tried to get to Bapchild Parish Council after the meeting at Minster on the Isle of Sheppey only to find they had finished! I did though arrive in time for a “catch up” with both the Chairman and the Clerk in the Village Hall car park. Also, in a localist vein I attended a meeting of the President and Vice- Presidents of the Kent Association of Local Councils and later in the month a Saturday morning Executive Meeting of the same body. There has also been a Swale Joint Transport Board and a Swale Rural Policing meeting with Swale Police and the National Farmers Union to Chair. I have had two trips to London in September, one for the National Executive Board of District Councils and one for the Executive of South East England Councils.
