  • The Lowy of Tonbridge
    http://kentarchaeology.org.uk/research/archaeologia-cantiana/ Kent Archaeological Society is a registered charity number 223382 © 2017 Kent Archaeological Society THE LOWY OF TONBRIDGE By W. V. D1TIVIBRECK TILE origin, nature and extent of the Lowy have interested many writers and produced not a little fiction. Lambard starts a story about Richard FitzGilbert being granted an area of land around Ton.bridge castle equal to the area he had possessed at Brionne in Normandy, precisely measured by a piece of rope. Harris elaborates this story and gives particulars of the separate judicial rights of the Lowy and perambulations of the boundary made in 1259 and 1279, acknowledging that they were supplied by "Captain George Weller of Tunbridge Town". The source of Harris' information is amongst the Weller- Pooley documents now in Kent Archives (KAO U38/Z2) and is marked "Copy taken out of an old copy ". They are notes made by Thomas Weller (1602-1670) the parliamentary lawyer in Tonbridge and lessee of the castle and manor. Why were two perambulations necessary and how are the differences between them explainable? The second followed the complaints of encroachments by Richard de Clare and his bailiff which are detailed in the Plea Rolls. We cannot rely on the names given by Harris (and copied by Hasted) as many mistakes have been made in the copying and re-copying. Fortunately the Archbishop's copy of the 1279 perambulation is still in. the Chapter House library at Canterbury (Ch. Ant. T32). It is written in a clear thirteenth century hand and is in excellent condition.

  • Tonbridge & Malling Borough Council Local Plan Site Selection Topic Paper
    Tonbridge & Malling Borough Council Local Plan Site Selection Topic Paper 1. Introduction 1.1. Purpose 1.1.1. The purpose of this Paper is to explain the process that the Council followed for the selection of development sites that feature in the submitted Local Plan. 1.1.2. The Spatial Strategy Topic Paper explains the strategic top-down influences that have shaped the scale and broad distribution of the strategy across the borough. This Topic Paper explains why the selected sites that feature in the submitted Plan fit in with the spatial strategy to make a sound Local Plan. As a reminder, the key strategic influences that shaped the broad spatial strategy are: • Housing Requirement • Housing Pressure – affordability ratio • Housing Market Areas exerting an influence across the borough • Housing Market Capacity (Absorption Rate) • Settlement Hierarchy • Availability of suitable development sites • Employment land need • Desire to deliver significant pieces of infrastructure to benefit local communities • Sustainability Appraisal 1.1.3. In addition to these strategic influences the site selection process was informed by local bottom-up pieces of evidence, including: • A20 VISUM Study (March 2018 + Update March 2019) • Transport Assessment (June 2018) + Addendum (August 2018) • Strategic Land Availability Assessment (March 2018) 1.1.4. The Council also took account of responses received during the consultation on the Regulation 18 version of the Local Plan (September) when determining the selection of sites in the submitted Plan. 1 1.1.5. This Paper does not explain the rationale for the broad spatial strategy nor does it explain the exceptional circumstances for the removal of specific sites from the Green Belt or the alteration to its outer boundary.

You are soon out of Tonbridge town centre and heading for Haysden Country Park, a popular recreational area of lakes and water meadows alongside the River Medway. The area's industrial past can be glimpsed in the many abandoned waterways and reclaimed gravel pits, while the modern Leigh Flood Relief Barrier is a reminder that this low-lying area is prone to flooding.
