Following positive experiences Richard Taylor at these projects, it is equally rewarding to see so many new members joining the Society. For me, the best way to increase the Society’s membership is engagement - get people involved, try new activities, learn new skills and make contributions to our County’s fantastic archaeological and historical heritage. The editor wishes to draw attention to the fact that neither he nor the KAS Council are answerable for opinions which contributors may express in their signed articles; each author is alone responsible for the contents and substance of their work. 02 | Kent Archaeological Society FRONT COVER PHOTO CREDIT? № 110 Winter 2018 CONTENTS FEATURES Lynsted V2 Rocket Excavation 06 Allen Grove Local History Fund 10 William Somner, Kentish Scholar 14 Kent’s Literary Heritage: A (Largely) Untapped Mine 17 A Glimpse into Iron Age Custom and Belief 20 Dowsing at Springhead near Gravesend in the 1950s 22 Excavations at Fort Amherst 23 The Ian Coulson Annual Bursary 30 Lees Court Estate: 2018 Excavations 33 A Thank You from Lady Sondes 33 Excavations in Woods Court Field, September 2018 34 Site Administration 36 Geophysics at Lees Court Estate 37 Estate and Farming View of Archaeological Digs 38 Stringmans Field Excavations 2018 39 Lees Court Estate 2018 42 16 27 10 30 18 09 10 km 06 6 mi.

  • Present: Cllr R Evison, Cllr R Whiting, Cllr A
    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.

  • Welcome to OHSCA's Winter Newsletter and Happy New Year
    Welcome to OHSCA’s Winter Newsletter and Happy New Year FROM THE EDITOR Another year seems to have flown by, with the series of Covid-related lockdowns and restrictions contributing to the feeling of a “lost” year. Not only OHSCA’s but your own personal plans have been disrupted. Let us hope that the newly developed vaccines will enable us resume a more normal life. The government has approved a vaccine that is considered safe for a general roll-out, starting with health workers, care homes, carers, older members of the public, and persons classed as vulnerable. Despite the restrictions, OHSCA’s officers have carried on with keeping an eye on local developments, planning applications and council matters. In particular, OHSCA, through ACRA (Alliance of pan- Canterbury Residents' Associations) has voiced serious concerns and submitted an objection to CCC regarding the proposed Mountfield Park development. The full objection is given in this newsletter. It is with deep regret that OHSCA reports that Ann Seller, who was a founding member of the previous Oaten Hill & District Society and former Lady Mayoress, was killed by a van outside the Waitrose supermarket on the A257 St George's Place crossing in November. Ann served in Canterbury's civic role 19 years ago and was a retired university lecturer. She will be very much missed. The site of the accident illustrates once again the danger of this crossing – a matter that has been repeatedly brought to the Council’s attention, alas to no avail. Why does the Council not move to make this crossing safe? This issue carries an interesting historical piece from Marion Bell on the Kingsfield estate development that was built in the New Dover Rd – Pilgrims Way area over the past decades.
