During the summer months we watch Pembury come alive. The trees and the countryside are beautiful and the oak tree on the Green seems a perfect symbol. Events like the Summer Fayre, when visitors remark that they are pleased to be here and not in the town, remind us of what we have and what we share. Sadly we still have those few – maybe younger members – who seem to want to destroy and damage.

    point your feet on a new path Tudeley: the Chagall Windows, a jewel of Kent Tunbridge Wells to Tonbridge Distance: 16½ km=10 miles or 10½ km=6½ miles easy walking Region: Kent Date written: 23-mar-2014 Author: Rambling Rose Last (major) update: 19-sep-2021 Refreshments: Tunbridge Wells, Pembury, Tonbridge, Tudeley Map: Explorer 136 (High Weald) hopefully not needed Problems, changes? We depend on your feedback: [email protected] Public rights are restricted to printing, copying or distributing this document exactly as seen here, complete and without any cutting or editing. See Principles on main webpage. Artistic and historical features, wide-ranging views, woods and wild flowers In Brief The modest little church of Tudeley draws visitors from all ends of the earth to see its wonderful stained-glass windows, all twelve of which were decorated by the painter Marc Chagall. The windows, which span three sides, fill the interior with blue and golden light and are at their best on a sunny day. The church is open to the public every day except during a service, wedding, etc. So you should check the calendar at www.tudeley.org/allsaintstudeley.htm before you set out, to make sure that the church will be open. This linear walk goes from Tunbridge Wells to Tonbridge via Tudeley Church, with a quick easy link by frequent public transport. Paths and tracks are well-signed and easy to follow. There are long stretches of tarmac, mostly very quiet cul-de-sac lanes and driveways, making this walk excellent in the wetter seasons .

  • 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.

  • Response to Tunbridge Wells Local Plan Regulation 18 Consultation
    Agenda Item 18 www.tmbc.gov.uk/localplan [email protected] Local Plan - Planning Policy Contact Ian Bailey Tunbridge Wells BC Email [email protected] Town Hall Your ref. Civic Way Our ref. Royal Tunbridge Wells Date 16.10.2019 Kent TN1 1RS Dear Planning Policy Team, Tunbridge Wells Local Plan Regulation 18 Consultation: Response on behalf of Tonbridge and Malling Borough Council (TMBC) Thank you for the opportunity to comment on the above consultation. The consultation draft of the emerging Tunbridge Wells Local Plan was considered at an extraordinary meeting of the Council’s Planning and Transportation Advisory Board on the 2nd October and again by the Cabinet on the 16th October. Both meetings were characterised by comprehensive debate. TMBC recognises the challenges facing Tunbridge Wells Borough Council (TWBC) in preparing this Plan as we share many of the same constraints, including significant areas of Green Belt and Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty in preparing the Tonbridge and Malling Local Plan. The aim of meeting objectively assessed needs for future development within the Borough is one we both share and is welcomed. However, the proximity of some of the major development proposals to the borough boundary and specifically, the south east of our main settlement of Tonbridge, is a matter of serious concern due to the potential impacts on the local highway network, rail services and other community infrastructure including health care and education, particularly when combined with planned developments in Tonbridge
