  • Landscape Assessment of Kent 2004
    CHILHAM: STOUR VALLEY Location map: CHILHAMCHARACTER AREA DESCRIPTION North of Bilting, the Stour Valley becomes increasingly enclosed. The rolling sides of the valley support large arable fields in the east, while sweeps of parkland belonging to Godmersham Park and Chilham Castle cover most of the western slopes. On either side of the valley, dense woodland dominate the skyline and a number of substantial shaws and plantations on the lower slopes reflect the importance of game cover in this area. On the valley bottom, the river is picked out in places by waterside alders and occasional willows. The railway line is obscured for much of its length by trees. STOUR VALLEY Chilham lies within the larger character area of the Stour Valley within the Kent Downs AONB. The Great Stour is the most easterly of the three rivers cutting through the Downs. Like the Darent and the Medway, it too provided an early access route into the heart of Kent and formed an ancient focus for settlement. Today the Stour Valley is highly valued for the quality of its landscape, especially by the considerable numbers of walkers who follow the Stour Valley Walk or the North Downs Way National Trail. Despite its proximity to both Canterbury and Ashford, the Stour Valley retains a strong rural identity. Enclosed by steep scarps on both sides, with dense woodlands on the upper slopes, the valley is dominated by intensively farmed arable fields interspersed by broad sweeps of mature parkland. Unusually, there are no electricity pylons cluttering the views across the valley. North of Bilting, the river flows through a narrow, pastoral floodplain, dotted with trees such as willow and alder and drained by small ditches.

  • Spring10.Pdf
    SIXTY YEARS ON by Sue This being the 60 th year of our track in Mote Park is yet another special year for us, last year 2009 being the 80 th anniversary of the formation of the Society. In delving for old pictures we were actually able to come up with some unique shots from the DVD of the video of the original cine film faithfully shot from 1949 to 1973 by Mr P.G. Wallis, another copy being kindly given to us by his son Peter. It is thanks to Phillip Wallis that so much of the Club's history has been faithfully recorded, because otherwise it would be lost to us. This picture is the actual attendance and opening of the original track in April 1950 by the then Mayor Sir Garrard Tyrwhitt-Drake. I wish I could name more of the other people present, I do recognise former president Jack Payne. The man in white in a hat with his back to us is Ernie Rix, about to show the Mayor his locomotive Liberty. Current Club Vice President Ken Linkins and his wife Joan can remember attending the actual event in 1950, although they were not members at this time. I think it nice to print this picture of Ken driving his Schools class loco taken not so many years after the track opened. It was especially nostalgic for them attending the re-enactment sixty years later with one of their sons Richard and his youngest son Alex, so I feel it is only right to include their picture next from the day of our 60 th celebrations on 18 th April 2010, behind Martin and his Duchess, which was the locomotive used in the 2010 re-enactment ceremony.

  • Canoe Camping Trips on the Medway Canoe Trail
    Canoe Camping Trips on the River Medway Canoe Trail Some of the most frequent questions we get asked are around the possible options for canoe camping trips on the river. This guide aims to help you decide on your own canoe camping adventure and suggests a couple of the trips that have been popular with our clients in the past. There is a lot of additional information on our website in the Resources section to help you plan your trip in detail so visit www.elveys-canoe.co.uk for more information. The Medway Canoe Trail The canoe trail is 27km long, starts at Tonbridge and finishes at Allington Lock where the river becomes tidal. Yalding is approximately 13km downriver from Tonbridge so roughly in the middle of the trail. There are 9 locks between Tonbridge and Allington and 7 of these have canoe passes. Campsites - Formal or Informal? What type of campsite you want will determine what route options might work best for you? There are 4 “formal” campsites along the canoe trail between Tonbridge and Allington and these offer toilet/shower and running water facilities on or close to the site. • Hop Farm Campsite • Marlin Campsite (toilet, shower, running water available at EA facility opposite) • Barming Bridge Campsite • Allington Lock Campsite More information about the formal campsite including contact details can be found in the River Medway Camping section on our website below. http://www.elveys-canoe.co.uk/river_medway_camping.php There are also “informal” camping options at a number of the locks along the trail. There are no facilities at these locks so you are virtually wild camping and need to have everything with you.

  • Canopy Cover Report
    Canopy Cover Assessment Kent Districts and Medway Executive Summary Canopy cover describes the area covered by a tree or shrub when viewed from above, including the leaves, branches and stem. Canopy cover is a two-dimensional metric, which can be used to quantify the spread of tree cover across an area, this method, however, does not measure understory vegetation. Assessing the spatial extent of a district and establishing a baseline dataset is an important step in the management of our natural environment and can assist planners, policy makers, foresters and communities to recognise the benefits provided by green infrastructure and its importance in community planning, sustainability and resilience. This dataset may be used to target resources to the areas that most need it. This study estimates tree canopy cover in Kent’s Districts using BlueSky data and the i-Tree analysis and assessment tool. Estimates of canopy cover for each ward, as well as each district’s total were calculated. The results provide a snapshot of current tree canopy cover and a baseline for comparison with future surveys. The average canopy cover of Kent and Medway is estimated at 17% and the canopy cover of the districts are as follows. District % Canopy Coverage Ashford 16.0% Canterbury 19.5% Dartford 18.5% Dover 9.0% Folkestone and Hythe 8.0% Gravesham 22.0% Maidstone 16.0% Medway 12.0% Sevenoaks 30.0% Swale 9.5% Thanet 4.0% Tonbridge and Malling 28.0% Tunbridge Wells 29.0% Average 17.0% There was a wide range of canopy cover across Kent and Medway at ward level, ranging from just 1.1% in both North Deal and Romney Marsh to 46% in Pembury.
