  • Notes on Roman Roads in East Kent Margary
    http://kentarchaeology.org.uk/research/archaeologia-cantiana/ Kent Archaeological Society is a registered charity number 223382 © 2017 Kent Archaeological Society NOTES ON ROMAN ROADS IN EAST KENT By IvAN D. MARGARY, F.S.A. THE Roman roads of East Kent are generally so obvious and well known that no further description of them seems necessary. There are, however, a few points at which the line is doubtful or where topographical problems admit of some discussion, and it is in considera- tion of these that the following notes are offered. They are based upon field observation made during a visit of some days to the district in June, 1947. STONE STREET—LYMPNE TO CANTERBURY The very striking directness of this road makes it clear that its purpose was to link Canterbury with the Roman port at Lympne. This was probably situated below the old cliffs, near the hamlet of West Hythe, to which access is given by a convenient combo in the cliffs at that point from Shipway Cross above. The Saxon Shore fort at Stutfall Castle was, of course, a late Roman construction, much later than Stone Street, and was probably connected to West Hythe by a spur road below the cliffs, for access to it from Lympne, directly above, would have been awkward. It is to Shipway Cross and the head of the combe that the main alignment of Stone Street is exactly directed. Although it has now disappeared between the Cross and New Inn Green, there are distinct traces of its scattered stone metalling in the field to the south of the Green, while portions of hedgerows and a footpath mark some parts of its course there.

  • An Inscribed Roman Altar Discovered at Napchester, Near Dover
    Archaeologia Cantiana Vol. 62 1949 AN INSCRIBED ROMAN ALTAR DISCOVERED AT NAPCHESTER NEAR DOVER By M. P. DARE, M.A. THE small Roman altar here illustrated was discovered by me on August 5th, 1949, at the small hamlet known as Napchester, on the Roman road which connected Rutupise (Richborough) with Dubris (Dover). I have presented it to Dover Museum, whose war-damaged collection is being reconstructed by the Honorary Curator, Mr. F. L. Warner, in premises at Ladywell, Dover. FRONT ELEVATION SECTION Height: 16-5 cm. Width: 12-6 cm. Scale: £ Koman Altar discovered at Napchester, Kent, on Roman Road from Rutupica to Dubris 94 ROMAN ALTAR DISCOVERED AT NAPCHESTER NEAR DOVER The altar is a typical portable domestic altar, of white sandstone not indigenous to the district. Its extreme height is ]6-5 cm., and its width at base 12-6 cm. Though the top is damaged, there is sufficient indication that there was a plain flat top above the mouldings, without the pediment and flanking scrolls often found. The base is damaged at the front dexter corner, but the dished and inscribed front panel is intact, and the mouldings round the top and base are quite good ; there is no ornamentation on the sides or back panel. The inscription reads, the AE and TV being ligatured : D • M G • AELIVS BRACTVS V • S • L • M The inscription presents several points of interest, and I am indebted to Mr. R. P.Wright of Durham University for permission to incorporate his authoritative views upon it. 1. It is important, because it gives us a cognomen, BRACTUS, not hitherto recorded in Britain, which may well be Keltic.

  • A COLLECTION of THREE LUXURY 4 BEDROOM HOMES in ASH, KENT Welcome to the BARNYARD
    A COLLECTION OF THREE LUXURY 4 BEDROOM HOMES IN ASH, KENT Welcome to The BARNYARD Design conscious conversion of an agricultural barn, creating three bespoke, luxury modern living homes. Located in the idyllic Kent village of Ash. An exceptional and unrivalled design. 1 2 Introduction Carefully considered from the ground up, we have designed and finished these homes for modern, forward-thinking and design conscious professionals and families. Industry-leading materials and finishes have been meticulously selected to achieve The Barnyard’s high end aesthetic. Cooper & Cole are passionate about shaping bespoke builds in beautiful locations. We deliver builds that would normally only be available as individually commissioned projects. Our aim is to create unique luxury spaces to call home, as well as help to shape lifestyles to match. Working closely with perfectly suited architects and interior designers on each project, we are proud to lead the way in non-conformative design. The result is a functional, stylish and unique home that people can flourish in. We understand and appreciate that the average home’s square rooms in square “boxes” are not what the Cooper & Cole customer desires. We are proud to offer the solution with open plan living and double height ceilings - creating homes for you to fall in love with. The Cooper & Cole team look forward to welcoming you to your new home. 3 24 The Area The Barnyard, situated in Ash, is ideally positioned between Wingham & Sandwich.
