  • ROYAL TUNBRIDGE WELLS - Past and Present - July 1946
    ROYAL TUNBRIDGE WELLS - Past and Present - July 1946 For the occasion of the Jubliee Congress of the South-Eastern Union of Scientific Societies Editor J. C. M. Given, Tunbridge Wells, Courier Printing and Publishing Co. Ltd., Grove Hill Road Many thanks to Kevin Wilkinson, who provided us with this concise history of Tunbridge Wells THE HISTORY OF TUNBRIDGE WELLS. CHARLES HILBERT STRANGE, F.R.I.B.A. For our knowledge of the early days of Tunbridge Wells we are dependent upon scrappy, often unreliable material gleaned from various sources - from the note-books of visitors (in prose and verse); from chance references in memoirs, diaries and letters; the recollections of old inhabitants; the puffs of quack physicians; old play-bills and sale notices. There are no official archives (apart from Acts of Parliament) to be consulted and we must be grateful to those who, like the late Radford Thomson (the author of Pelton's Guide), the late Henry Robert Knipe (the compiler of the Chronicles which formed the main feature of the Handbook prepared for the Congress of 1916) have ransacked and collated these miscellaneous facts. Amongst more recent writers should be mentioned Miss Margaret Barton, whose diligent researches have enabled her to present us with a fascinating picture of Tunbridge Wells and the distinguished people who favoured it with their patronage. There is also a good short summary of early history in a Report recently prepared by the Civic Association entitled "Tunbridge Wells - Traditions and Future of the Town." It is no part of the present writer's ambition to rival these histories and guide books.
