Housing Scheme Brochure HOUSING SCHEMES A guide to Dartford Borough Council’s Senior Housing schemes Contents Introduction 3 Crusader Court 4 Elizabeth Court 5 Farrell Court 6 The Homestead 7 Lenderyou Court 8 Mill Court 9 Stow Court 10 Templars Court 11 Thatcher Court 12 Wardona Court 13 Warren Court (Meadowside) 14 Car Parking 15 “I am delighted to recommend this guide to Dartford Borough Council’s Housing Schemes. It is comprehensive in detail and easy to read. The Council is very proud of its wide provision of Housing Schemes which are spread fairly evenly around the Borough. Because of this it is likely there will be a Scheme available in an area convenient to you and maybe your family, which meets most of your preferences. The Council is committed to providing the very highest standard of accommodation to its tenants when, due to advancing years, they come to seek a more relaxed and secure home life within a friendly, established community. This guide will, I am sure, be a great help to you in making what will, undoubtedly, be a very important decision when that time comes.” Councillor Pat Coleman Special Advisor for Housing Introduction If you are thinking about downsizing or considering moving to our senior housing scheme accommodation, please take a moment to browse our brochure, to see all that there is on offer. We know that moving home is a daunting prospect for most people; but if you feel that you want to be closer to your family, or that you don’t want to have to tackle those stairs any longer, a flat in one of our housing schemes may be right for you. This brochure provides information about the Council’s housing developments and an overview of the service which is available with this accommodation. Dartford Council’s senior schemes have been specifically designed to provide privacy and independence, but with an additional layer of security. Our tenants lead busy, independent lives, just as they would if they lived anywhere else, but with plenty of opportunities to get to know neighbours and to make new friends. The aim of our service is to help tenants sustain their tenancies and retain their independence, in a comfortable setting where they feel safe and secure. This brochure highlights the main benefits of living in one of our senior schemes, as well as some of the rules that are necessary for the safety and comfort of everyone. We deliver our service via a flexible team of fully trained Housing Scheme Officers (HSO’s). Our staff have been specifically chosen for their professional skills and expertise, so any member of our team is able to help or advise you. Personal information is always dealt with in the strictest confidence. Our HSO’s provide tenants with anenha nced housing management service. This is designedto help you sustain your tenancy. Our SHO’s are also responsible for ensuring the safety of the building including all communal areas and have been trained to deal with all kinds of emergency situations, so can be relied upon to immediately contact the relevant party, whoever that may be. The HSO role is a busy one, so our officers are unable to run errands, provide personal care, collect shopping or pensions, or pick up prescriptions. Your HSO is always happy to help in an emergency, but families should always remain the first point of contact for your continued care and welfare. When you move to a senior scheme, your existing contact with your family and friends will continue in the same way as it did before. If you do not have any family who live nearby, with your prior permission your HSO can make a referral to Social Services who may be able to provide help for the tasks you can no longer manage on your own. Your HSO cannot make any referrals without your permission. Your HSO will also be available to assist your residents association with arranging social inclusion activities, outings and events but these must be open to all tenants living in the scheme. 3 Crusader Court Keyes Road, Dartford, Kent DA1 5EG Crusader Court is an enclosed scheme consisting of 48 flats with a lift to upper floors.

This recording exercise forms a detailed survey of the extant tramway tunnels at Historic England Level 3 (English Heritage 2006a). The wider site was subject to a Level 1 record, for contextual purposes. A desk-based assessment has previously been produced for the site by Archaeology South-East (ASE 2005). The site was established as a quarry in the early 20th century, forming part of the Swanscombe Works. The Swanscombe Works was one of the largest cement producers throughout the 20th century, and at its closure in 1990 was the oldest cement producer in the world.

  • Swanscombe and Greenhithe Residents' Association
    SWANSCOMBE AND GREENHITHE RESIDENTS’ ASSOCIATION ‘By Residents for Residents’ 2 MERIEL WALK, INGRESS PARK, GREENHITHE, KENT, DA9 9GL 2nd December 2017 Dear Sir/Madam, Swanscombe and Greenhithe Residents’ Association (SGRA) is a community group with over 1,500 members from the traditional community of Swanscombe and Greenhithe. This area is clearly defined in our constitution as the current Borough Wards of Castle, Greenhithe and Swanscombe. The twin areas of Swanscombe and Greenhithe have historically been a single community with a strong sense of its own identity; acknowledging and celebrating a greater common heritage Our principle purpose, as an independent Residents’ Association, is to support the wellbeing, environment, and amenities available to all residents of Swanscombe and Greenhithe. This principle ensures effective representation for all local residents; which is demonstrated by the SGRA currently holding twenty-one of the elected Councillor positions within Swanscombe and Greenhithe Town. These Councillors serve on the Swanscombe and Greenhithe Town Council (SGTC); Dartford Borough Council (DBC) and Kent County Council (KCC). The SGRA welcomes this opportunity to participate in shaping the future democratic landscape in Dartford. The SGRA recognises the work already undertaken in determining Council size in Dartford and believes the decision to recommend forty-two councillors will be effective. Based on the current total Borough electorate of 88,995 and the proposal for 42 members, this will mean that each DBC Councillor should have a target electorate of about 2,119. We believe this will provide an appropriate balance between strong, effective local governance as well as having the capacity of democratically elected representatives to maintain a meaningful connection with the residents that have elected them.

  • Rochester Castle : Baronies and Knight's Fees Owing Castle-Guard Service to Rochester
    Rochester castle : Baronies and knight's fees owing castle-guard service to Rochester At Rochester as at Dover, the manors which had once carried some share of the responsibility for defending the castle were required to pay castle-guard rents, and they continued paying these rents long after the castle itself had become a ruin. Thomas Philipott said this: "There is much Land in this County held of this Castle, whose Tenure is perfect Castleguard: for upon the Day prefixed for the discharge of the quitt-Rent, relating to it, there is a Banner displaid and hung out (anciently it was over the Castle-Wall) and all those who are ... in Default by their non-Appearance, and do not discharge their Customary Duties, and Services, the Penaltie imposed upon their Neglect, is, that the Return of every Tide of the adjacent River which finds them Absent, doubles their Service or quitt-Rent." (Philipott 1659:288) A later report, mostly but not entirely derived from Philipott, says this: "Much land in this and other counties is held of this castle, whose tenure is perfect castle guard; for on St. Andrew's day, old stile, <30 Nov OS = 11 Dec NS> a banner is hung out at the house of the receiver of the rents; and every tenant who does not then discharge his proper rent, is liable to have it doubled on the return of every tide in the adjacent river, during the time it remains unpaid." (Shrubsole 1772:40) By Hasted's account (which I have not checked), the derelict castle at Rochester was granted by James I to Sir Anthony Weldon in 1612-13.
