Stories of Wrens, Wheelchair users: Free (donation welcome) nurses, wives of Royal Marines and other women associated with the Barracks are Board of Trustees also shown. Robert Acton David Hossack We have been recording memories over the past two years and you have Kathy Hostettler an opportunity, not only to read these but also to use an old dial up Sheila Legg telephone to listen to them. There are old films to watch too. Quentin Withall Dunkirk We have moved, and refurbished, part of the popular Dunkirk display and this now hangs with Tender Too, one of the Little Ships that helped in the evacuation from France in 1940. Also new in the main gallery is information on smuggling, the Goodwin Sands and Deal’s piers. We have new display cabinets in this area too, which were donated last year. Upper Gallery Upstairs in the main building, there are now two quizzes – the newest focusing more on Walmer. The East Kent Coalfield display features some new films and we have updated the display on Deal High Street to show occupancy in 2018. For people with limited mobility, we have a tablet computer for use on the ground floor, which depicts the key displays upstairs and allows visitors to view the audio-visual display and take part in the quizzes. We continue to be part of the Wheels of Time scheme, which encourages children and young people to visit museums and heritage sites across Kent. As part of this, we have a revamped Pirate Quiz with free pirate hats and, for those up to 15, an interactive experience using maritime flags to code and de- code and help Nelson at the Battle of Trafalgar. The Timeball Tower is joining the scheme this year so there is a chance to gain two WOT badges in Deal. Thank you to everyone who has contributed to all these developments and to those who have given up their time to paint and clean and get the museum ready for the new season. GRANTS We want to thank the Co-op and the Sergeant’s Mess Panto for funding for the Royal Marines Exhibition; the S. E. Museum Development Programme for funding the pilot for those with limited mobility; the Sir Ernest Bruce Charles Charity for contributing to the stable block refurbishment; and The Cleary Foundation for funding towards equipment for museum talks. We also wish to thank Deal Town Council who have recently given the museum a grant of £1,000 so that we can start the preservation and storage of the Basil Kidd Collection of photographs and negatives. These were donated by Basil Kidd’s family last year and provide a fascinating insight into the history of Deal in the second half of the twentieth century. EVENTS IN 2018 The pre-season event and Christmas party are free for supporters. Tickets for paid events can be purchased from the museum during opening hours or from our website. They can also be secured by post, enclosing a cheque and a SAE if you want your tickets posted to you.

Please ask friends and relatives if they would support us too! VOLUNTEERS A number of new volunteers joined us last year but we very much need more stewards to welcome visitors and take their entrance fees. You don’t need to know a lot of history and we provide support for as long as you want. You don’t have to make a regular commitment but we do ask you to steward at least once a month so that you keep up to date with what is happening. We would also welcome volunteers who would like to help out in other ways. If you’d like to find out more, email [email protected] or phone Ann Bishop, Volunteer Co-ordinator, on 01304 360653. AND FINALLY… A big thank you to Joy McDonagh who has resigned from her trustee and treasurer roles for personal reasons. Joy has made a major contribution to the development of the museum, and we will miss her! We give a warm welcome and thanks to Bronwen Robson who has taken on the role of treasurer on Joy’s departure. Bronwen writes: “I have recently moved back to Deal and it’s good to be back! I am self-employed and currently studying for a diploma in accountancy at Canterbury College which I really enjoy. Deal is a town I am very fond of, so I am very pleased to be able to get involved with the museum. I look forward to meeting you all over the coming months.“ We need more trustees to help shape the future of the museum. If you are interested and would like to know more, please talk to one of the current trustees or email [email protected] Deal Maritime and Local History Museum, 22 St. George’s Road Web: http://dealmuseum.co.uk Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/dealmaritimemuseum Twitter: https://twitter.com/Deal_Museum Registered Charity: 288090, Registered Museum: 1420 .

    Lyle Tompsen, Student Number 28001102, Masters Dissertation The Mari Lwyd and the Horse Queen: Palimpsests of Ancient ideas A dissertation submitted to the University of Wales Trinity Saint David in fulfilment of the requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts Celtic Studies 2012 Lyle Tompsen 1 Lyle Tompsen, Student Number 28001102, Masters Dissertation Abstract The idea of a horse as a deity of the land, sovereignty and fertility can be seen in many cultures with Indo-European roots. The earliest and most complete reference to this deity can be seen in Vedic texts from 1500 BCE. Documentary evidence in rock art, and sixth century BCE Tartessian inscriptions demonstrate that the ancient Celtic world saw this deity of the land as a Horse Queen that ruled the land and granted fertility. Evidence suggests that she could grant sovereignty rights to humans by uniting with them (literally or symbolically), through ingestion, or intercourse. The Horse Queen is represented, or alluded to in such divergent areas as Bronze Age English hill figures, Celtic coinage, Roman horse deities, mediaeval and modern Celtic masked traditions. Even modern Welsh traditions, such as the Mari Lwyd, infer her existence and confirm the value of her symbolism in the modern world. 2 Lyle Tompsen, Student Number 28001102, Masters Dissertation Table of Contents List of definitions: ............................................................................................................ 8 Introduction ..................................................................................................................

We are a strong Branch with over 500 members, if one of those members is you, please come along to our Annual General Meeting to be held on Saturday 19th January 2019 at The Bradstow Mill, 11.45 for a 12:00 prompt start. This is your opportunity to becoming involved in your Branch, to help us move forward, to celebrate and enjoy the excellent Re- al Ale and Real Cider that some of our local amazing establishments. Aside from the Branch Committee, we are also specifically looking for someone who could put together the Beer Festival Programme, including seeking advertisers and arranging the printing – could this be you? One the difficult tasks I have had this year is working with the Beer Festival Committee to ensure that we have a Festival in 2019. We had been in a really lucky position that for a considerable time we have had a very, very good rate when we hired the Winter Gardens, and due to the situa- tion, they are in, they had to review our hire, and after much number crunching and negotiation we have managed to secure the venue.

    Old English Customs THE FAVERSHAM MOOT HORN. This horn served for the calling of local assemblies at Faversham, Kent, circa 1300. Old Snglish Customs Sxtant at the Present Time An Account of Local Observances^ Festival Customs^ and (Ancient Ceremonies yet Surviving in Great Britain By T. H. T)itchfield, 3U.A., F.S.A. London cK 1896 \v PREFACE I HE object of this work is to describe all the old customs which still linger on in the obscure nooks and corners of our native land, or which have survived the march of progress in our busy city's life. There are many books which treat of ancient customs, and repeat again the stories told by Brand, Hone, and other historians and as far antiquaries ; but, as we are aware, there is no book describing the actual folk-customs yet extant, which may be witnessed to-day by the folk-lorist and lover of rural manners. We have endeavoured to supply this want, and to record only those customs which time has spared. Undoubtedly the decay has been rapid. Many customs have vanished, quietly dying out without giving a sign. The present generation has witnessed the extinc- tion of many observances which our fathers practised and revered, and doubtless the v 286064 Preface progress of decay will continue. We have entered upon a diminished inheritance. Still it is surprising to find how much has been left how the race ; tenaciously English clings to that which habit and usage have estab- lished how ancient customs hold in ; sway the palace, the parliament, the army, the law courts, amongst educated people as well as unlearned rustics cluster ; how they around our social institutions, are enshrined in reli- and are law gious ceremonial, preserved by ; how carefully they have been guarded through the many ages of their existence, and how deeply rooted they are in the affections of the English people.
