JOB OPPORTUNITY Community Curator Kent Mining Museum Betteshanger Country Park Ltd £25,000 pro rata Part Time (16hrs per week) 3yr Fixed Term Contract Joining us, you will hold a genuine interest in community engagement and museum collections, with an ability to connect with our audiences. As a core member of the team you will develop collections policies and procedures working across the collection of the Kent Mining Museum and the collections held at the Aylesham and Elvington Heritage Centres.

Coal was discovered in East Kent in 1890, however, it wasn’t until 1912 that commercial coal was raised to the surface and the four East Kent collieries were established at Tilmanstone, Chislet, Snowdown and Betteshanger. Thousands of jobs were supported by the coal industry and many families migrated from Wales and the North East in search of work. Betteshanger was the last of the four East Kent Coal Mines to close in 1989. Betteshanger Country Park was established in 2007 when the former coal mining spoil heap was transformed into a space for people to enjoy. The 250acre site has been slowly transformed over the years to become a centre for events, outdoor sporting, and adventure activities. We are at an exciting point in the project’s development as Betteshanger Country Park will soon be opening the doors of a new iconic Visitor Centre that will host the Kent Mining Museum, a learning space, café and conference centre. Celebrating Kent’s mining heritage will be a key focus for the new Visitor Centre and wider Park. It will provide opportunities to showcase the unique story of Kent’s mining communities and profile their heritage through a combination of the Museum, Heritage Trail, Coal Mining themed play area, a vibrant programme of learning activities and online collections database. The successful candidate will be required to undertake a Disclosure and Barring Service Check (DBS) and to provide proof of their right to work in the UK. You can request the application pack by emailing [email protected] This position is funded by the National Lottery Heritage Fund. The closing date for applications is Sunday 4th July 2021 (Midnight) Interviews will be held on Thursday 22nd & Friday 23rd July 2021 www.kentminingmuseum.co.uk .

Draft Local Plan Proposed Site Allocations - Reasons for Site Selection
Topic Paper: Draft Local Plan Proposed Site Allocations - Reasons for Site Selection Dover District Local Plan Supporting document The Selection of Site Allocations for the Draft Local Plan This paper provides the background to the selection of the proposed housing, gypsy and traveller and employment site allocations for the Draft Local Plan, and sets out the reasoning behind the selection of specific site options within the District’s Regional, District, Rural Service, Local Centres, Villages and Hamlets. Overarching Growth Strategy As part of the preparation of the Local Plan the Council has identified and appraised a range of growth and spatial options through the Sustainability Appraisal (SA) process: • Growth options - range of potential scales of housing and economic growth that could be planned for; • Spatial options - range of potential locational distributions for the growth options. By appraising the reasonable alternative options the SA provides an assessment of how different options perform in environmental, social and economic terms, which helps inform which option should be taken forward. It should be noted, however, that the SA does not decide which spatial strategy should be adopted. Other factors, such as the views of stakeholders and the public, and other evidence base studies, also help to inform the decision. The SA identified and appraised five reasonable spatial options for growth (i.e. the pattern and extent of growth in different locations): • Spatial Option A: Distributing growth to the District’s suitable and potentially suitable housing and employment site options (informed by the HELAA and Economic Land Review). • Spatial Option B: Distributing growth proportionately amongst the District’s existing settlements based on their population.

BOYS of KENT
BOYS of KENT Original source - William BOYS & Thomas BRETT pedigree in SoG additional material from John V. Boys, Malcolm Boyes, Jenny Treadgold, Peter Walkerley, Wendy Sveistrup, Colin Boyes, The following text is at the commencement of the pedigree..... DJB This pedigree was drawn by me from various parochial registers; from sepulchral monuments; from wills registered in London; from Heraldic visitations of 1574, 1619, 1663, and from other records of the Heralds office, obligingly furnished by Sir Isaac Heard, Garter King at arms; from papers communicated by Messrs. Thomas and Nicholas Brett, of Spring-grove in Wye; and from private evidences of my own family. Besides the papers above mentioned in the possession of Messrs. Brett, I have derived assistance from the hand-writing of Dr Thomas Brett, containing a history of the Betteshanger branch, to which the Doctor was allied by the marriage of his father with Laeatitia daughter of John Boys Esq. A certificate of marriage ( an extract of which I have hereto subjoined ) is annexed to the papers of Spring-grove, in the hand of the Rev. Mr. Nicholas Brett, only son of the Doctor. The Pedigree he mentions was by no means complete, but yet of use to me, as it is particularly served to direct the enquiries necessary to the making mine so perfect as it is; the Surrey branch, ie. from the first Anthony downwards, being the only part of it wherein I have been under the necessity of trusting to the information of others. I am proud to acknowledge my obligation to William Boteler, Esq., of Eastry F.S.A as well as his unwearied assistance in drawing out the Pedigree, and for his affectionate compliance with my wishes to examine every part of the evidence adduced and attest its authenticity.
