Map Features: Comment text: Canterbury City Councillors in general do not represent the interests of voters. I strongly support the decision to reduce their numbers. I would welcome further reductions. In my opinion Canterbury City would be better served by a small accountable service with the remit of maintaining public land, keeping streets and roads litter and graffiti free and maintaining law and order. City Councillors are paid a lot of money and do none of these things. Decisions regarding future planning decisions and selling land should be put at county level and kept in the public domain; city councillors seem to have no long-term vision. Tax payers' money should not be wasted in allowing the City Council to pay expensive lawyers to fight residents' legitimate claim to preserve recreational land in densely populated city locations as such while neglecting basic maintenance of the city so harming legitimate business interests. https://consultation.lgbce.org.uk//node/print/informed-representation/2692

Not to be quoted without permission 1 Introduction .......................................................................................................................1 2 Inventory of beach recharge schemes ..............................................................................5 3 Notes and sources ............................................................................................................9 4 Conclusion ......................................................................................................................17 5 References......................................................................................................................21 1 Introduction Sand and shingle are being lost from many beaches in Sussex and Kent as a result of natural coastal processes as well as ill-designed sea defence and coastal protection schemes. To counteract falling beach levels, the Environment Agency and local authorities are increasingly resorting to “topping-up” the beaches with additional sand and shingle. Several terms are currently employed to refer to the artificial provision of extra beach material, but there is disagreement about their precise definition. For the purpose of this report, beach nourishment (or beach replenishment) is defined as the supply of material that has been dredged from the seabed or extracted from inland sand and gravel pits. Beach recycling is defined as the removal

STEPHEN'S CHURCH, HACKINGTON, AND ITS POSSIBLE CONNECTION WITH ARCHBISHOP BALDWIN. BY SURGEON-CAPTAIN KENNETH H. JONES, M.B., R.N. THE first church we know of at Hackmgton was in part built by Archbishop Anselm about 1100 or a httle later, and of this considerable portions stUl remain at the west end and in the nave of the present building. The present church consists of a nave, with a tower at its western end, a chancel, north and south transepts and a south porch. The tower was raised, probably, by Archdeacon Simon Langton, about 1230, upon the walls of Anselm's Norman nave. In order that the Norman nave should be able to carry the weight of the tower, two large buttresses were placed at its north-west and south-west angles, while a very thick wall, some twelve feet high and pierced by a pointed arch, was built from side to side of the nave, inside, to support its eastern wall. AU this is clearly shown on Canon Livett's excellent plan facing page 268. The great buttresses form straight joints below the level of the Norman eaves, and above are shghtly bonded into the tower walls. The windows of the tower, probably of thirteenth century date, were altered in the fifteenth century, when trefoil hoods were added. The whole is surmounted by an octagonal wooden spire dating from the late seventeenth or early eighteenth century.

    HACKINGTON PARISH COUNCIL MINUTES OF HACKINGTON PARISH ASSEMBLY HELD AT TYLER HILL MEMORIAL HALL AT 7.00pm ON THURSDAY 14th March 2019 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Present: Cllr. R Evison (Chairman); Cllr. B. Fitter-Harding; Cllr. A. Cover; Cllr. T. Hulks; Cllr. N. Cronin and D Horswell (Clerk). Also present: Ward Cllr. G. Metcalfe; County Cllr. Robert Thomas and twenty two residents. Apologies for Absence: Ward Cllr. Amy Baker. The Chairman opened the meeting by welcoming everyone to the Parish Assembly. An update was given by Paul Leary (KCC Highways Officer) on the traffic survey which had been carried out by KCC on Canterbury Hill. This had been conducted on 27th November 2018 and had recorded data on the stretch of the road from Calais Hill to Giles Lane. The average speed of the traffic had been found to be well within the 40mph speed limit, however, Members of the Parish Council pointed out that the rush hour traffic obviously skews the average speed. Residents had the opportunity, through the Chairman, to ask questions and voice their concerns to Paul. Suitable measures which would be allowable for traffic calming were discussed and KCC were asked for recommendations that could be put before the Parish Council for discussion. The problem of the narrowness of the footpath on Canterbury Hill and a suggestion of the hedges and vegetation being needed to be cut back and removed to allow for extra width for the safety of pedestrians was expressed. Paul is to take all the issues and suggestions by the Parish Council and residents back to KCC for implementation.

  • THE WHITSTABLE COPPERAS INDUSTRY by ROBERT H

    THE WHITSTABLE COPPERAS INDUSTRY by ROBERT H

    Archaeologia Cantiana Vol. 70 1956 THE WHITSTABLE COPPERAS INDUSTRY By ROBERT H. GOODSALL, F.R.I.B.A. IN The Merry Guide to Margate, Ramsgate and Broadstairs, published about 1825, the author, " Bernard Blackmantle "l wrote: " Near the sea shore at Tankerton, six copperas houses formerly stood, only one of which now remains, the cliff whereon they were erected having gradually loosened by the encroach- ments of the sea; here the manufacture of copperas used to be carried on to some extent, but owing to the above-named circum- stances, and the cheapness of the article in the north of England and elsewhere, the works have been for some time disused." Earlier another writer2 had referred to " the black and dismal appearance of the copperas buildings " which " excite disgust rather than curiosity". Hasted contains a brief reference to the subject: " About half a mile from the street, near the sea shore and Tankerton are six copperas- houses, where the manufacture of copperas, or green vitriol, is carried on." To-day all visible traces of the works have long since disappeared and local memory is unable to recall details of this bygone trade of many generations of Whitstable folk. However, thanks to the kindness of Mr. W. M. Bishop, L.R.I.B.A., of Whitstable, the writer has had the opportunity of examining upwards of seventy most interesting deeds and writings in his possession which trace the ownership of the Copperas Works and the land upon which they stood. These documents provide many hitherto unknown or forgotten details concerning the manufac- ture, and above all furnish evidence of the considerable size and importance of the copperas trade to the district hi past centuries.
