Summary The Romney Marsh has a unique historic landscape that has evolved over thousands of years. It is now the largest coastal wetland on the southern coast of England and is well known for its natural beauty, diverse habitats and wildlife, rich heritage and extensive coastline. Its long and complex natural history is primarily one of land reclamation and the ongoing battle to manage and retain this land. A number of distinctive features are present throughout its iconic landscape that reflect a rich local heritage that is primarily centred on this battle for land drainage and coastal defence as well as a rich agricultural heritage, wartime defences, maritime heritage and the medieval churches of the Marsh. Its landscape is predominantly characterised by its openness and wildness and is unique in the county. 2. Introduction Since the end of the last Ice Age around 11,500 years ago, the Kent coast has been extensively modified by generally rising sea levels.

Summary The district is rich in archaeological evidence beginning from the first occupations by early humans in Britain 800,000 years ago through to the twentieth century. The archaeological remains are in many forms such as ruins, standing monuments and buried archaeology and all attest to a distinctive Kentish history as well as its significant geographical position as a gateway to the continent. Through the district’s archaeology it is possible to track the evolution of Kent as well as the changing cultures, ideas, trade and movement of different peoples into and out of Britain. The District’s role in the defence of the country is also highlighted in its archaeology and forms an important part of the archaeological record for this part of the British southern coastline.

  • BURMARSH PARISH COUNCIL on the Warding Pattern and Parish Electoral Arrangements
    LOCAL GOVERNMENT BOUNDARY COMMISSION FOR ENGLAND ELECTORAL REVIEW OF SHEPWAY DISTRICT Submission by BURMARSH PARISH COUNCIL on the warding pattern and parish electoral arrangements 1. Burmarsh Parish Council prefers that it remains as part of the Romney Marsh ward that currently provides unified representation for all of the inland marsh communities which have common interests and concerns; comprising a unique area within Shepway. 2. Strong and easily identifiable boundaries are, broadly, Hythe, the Downs, the light railway and the county boundary. 3. Burmarsh's experience is that most issues which concern the community, such as transport, housing, planning, burial facilities, wind turbines etc...., are shared with the other small villages of Brenzett, Snargate, Brookland, Ivychurch, Newchurch, Old Romney, and St. Mary in the Marsh. There is a long standing practice of the District and County representatives for these parishes to call them together on a regular basis for the sharing of common concerns. 4. Whilst recognising the principle of electoral equality, the Parish Council hopes that the Commission will not be so influenced by arithmetical considerations that it proposes merging these isolated but distinct communities with larger areas such as Hythe or Lydd, with their more urban preoccupations, or with coastal communities such as Dymchurch and St. Mary's Bay which are focussed upon tourism and sea defences. 5. Finally, the Parish Council sees no reason for the Commission to propose any change to the current parish electoral arrangements. John Rich Clerk to Burmarsh Parish Council .

  • Folkestone and Hythe Labour Party
    Folkestone and Hythe Constituency Labour Party submission to the Consultation on the Local Government Boundary Commission for England’s Draft Recommendations for Shepway District Council. Folkestone and Hythe Constituency Labour Party is pleased to make our submission to the consultation on the Local Government Boundary Commission’s Draft Recommendations for Shepway District Council. We would also like to express and register our serious concerns about the proposals to be submitted by Shepway District Council in response to the LGBCE draft recommendations. The Council, with 42 out of 46 local district councillors being members of the Conservative Party (even though their vote decreased proportionally at the last council elections), have sought to amend the LGBCE draft recommendations in a manner which seeks to break up existing communities, nor does it seek to achieve better electoral equality. The Shepway District Council proposals are nothing short of a blatant attempt at gerrymandering on behalf of the Folkestone and Hythe Conservative Association and its councillors. The Shepway District Council proposal to amend the west Folkestone area to create a single member ward for part of Sandgate seeks to divide a unified and established community and parish area and create disharmony within the parish. Furthermore it seeks to create a new west Folkestone ward of Folkestone Harvey to incorporate parts of the Sandgate Parish and community with the west end of Folkestone and a large proportion of rented flats and transient population east of Grimston Avenue. Furthermore it seeks to place Folkestone Central station within the new Shepway District Council proposed west Folkestone ward, thus making little sense as it continues with the name ‘Folkestone Central’ in a smaller Folkestone Central ward to the east.

  • Earthworks Survey, Romney Marsh
    http://kentarchaeology.org.uk/research/archaeologia-cantiana/ Kent Archaeological Society is a registered charity number 223382 © 2017 Kent Archaeological Society EARTHWORKS SURVEY, ROMNEY MARSH ANNE REEVES INTRODUCTION Romney Marsh is a fiat, fertile peninsula located between Rye in East Sussex and Hythe on the south Kent coast (Fig. 1). It forms a distinct region and is in fact a collective name for several marshes (or Levels). The Romney Marsh Level (or Romney Marsh proper as it is known locally) comprises about 10,000 hectares and is located in the north-east of the region. This Level contains the most ancient land surfaces, and settlement was established here earlier than on other parts of the Marsh. Romney Marsh is not marsh in the usual sense of the word. Effective land drainage and defence against the sea have rendered it firm ground for centuries now, suitable for cultivation and habitation all year round. It has, however, always been a dynamic environment affected by changes in sea level, coastline and inundations over the ages. The Soil Survey (Green 1968) has mapped the complex depositional history of the area. In doing so it distinguished between 'older' decalcified and 'newer' cal- careous soils, thereby revealing the courses of former rivers and tidal inlets. The earliest and most northerly of these, known originally as the river Lirnen, cut across the Romney Marsh Level from west to east during the Roman period.' Creek ridges similar to those found in Hol- land, and known as roddons in the Fens, are a feature of the Romney Marsh landscape. Former drainage channels that have become silted up eventually emerge as ridges as drainage causes differential shrinkage of the peat substratum — a process known as inversion.
