  • A Hand List of English Enclosure Acts and Awards Tate
    http://kentarchaeology.org.uk/research/archaeologia-cantiana/ Kent Archaeological Society is a registered charity number 223382 © 2017 Kent Archaeological Society ( 54 ) A HAND-LIST OF ENGLISH ENCLOSURE ACTS AND AWARDS. PART 17. OPEN FIELDS, COMMONS AND ENCLOSURES IN KENT. BY W. E. TATE, F.R.HIST.S. KENT, as Professor H. L. Gray's map shows,1 lies well outside the main. area recognized as having formerly been cultivated under the two- and three-field systems. Meitzen2 considered that the differences—very obvious to even a superficial enquirer—existing between the field structure of Kent and that of the Midland counties are clear evidence of "Celtic " settlement. The difficulty in the way of accepting this theory is that Kent, as we shall see later, is probably of all the English counties the one most pre-eminently English in its settlement. Never- theless, it is characterized by the peculiar field systems alluded to, and in general by very early enclosure. So far is this true that some very competent authorities have doubted how far either common arable fields or common pastures were ever generally prevalent here. Professor Gray found evidence of such, however, and his findings are confirmed and are amplified by the later researches of Dr. and Mrs. Orwin.3 They have found definite evidence of the existence of open fields medievally both to the north and to the south of the Weald. They quote Dr. Muhlfeld4 for further evidence as to the existence of four fields at Wye in 1312. Dr. Muhlfeld, however, found that these fields early disappeared.

    The FREE Magazine of the Ashford, Folkestone & Romney Marsh Branch of CAMRA - The Campaign for Real Ale Congratulations 30 Years in GBG POTY 2015 Summer 2015 Chairmans Report Welcome to the summer edition of Marsh Mash. Well the Kent & East Sussex Railway Real and Ale and Cider festival was a tremendous success. There was an excellent selection of beer lined up in order of strength. It was mostly sold out along with a significant amount of the cider. I would like to thank the railway and all who volunteered to help during the setting up the racking to serving behind the bar. Without your help we would not be able to run the festival. I also hope that everyone who attended enjoyed themselves and will hopefully attend again next year. If you would like to be more involved with the festival or Ashford, Folkestone and Romney Marsh CAMRA, please come along to our meetings. The next one being at the Globe, Hythe at 7:30pm on 10th September. Since the last edition several things have happened within the branch, Stuart and Gilly have left the Guildhall, Doris at the Red Lion Snargate was presented with two awards by Roger Protz, editor of the GBG, one for branch Pub of the Year (POTY) and the other for being in the Good Beer Guide (GBG) for 30 consecutive years. An enjoyable trip around pubs in the hinterland of Folkestone was fully booked and I believe everybody enjoyed themselves including some colleagues from Dover. Remember you don’t need to be a member to join us on our trips to remote pubs with no regular public transport.

Public Participation Session: Members of the Wanstall family were present and passed on their thanks to the Parish for agreeing to the siting of a memorial bench on the green. A resident spoke about a misunderstanding that they had with planning at their property as at the time of purchase there were two mobile homes on the site. However, when they applied for a lawful development certificate it was refused as there was no evidence of residency. A planning consultant has been employed and a new application will be submitted for the home within the curtilage of the property.

  • The Ingoldsby Country
    The Ingoldsby Country By Charles G. Harper The Ingoldsby Country CHAPTER I INTRODUCTORY The present writer foregathered a little while since with a man who had been to the uttermost parts of the earth. He had just returned from Australia, and was casually met on what the vulgar call the "Tuppenny Tube," travelling from the Bank to Shepherd's Bush. It was a humorous anti-climax to all those other journeys, but that is not the point here to be made. He was full, as might have been expected, of tales strange and curious of those outposts of civilisation he had visited, and of legends of places—whose names generally ended with two gulps and a click—where civilisation was an unknown quantity. But to this man, who had been everywhere and elsewhere, who had crossed the Dark Continent when it was still dark, England, his native land, was largely a sealed book. Even as one spoke with him it could be perceived how perfect an exemplar he was of many globe-trotting Britons who roam the world and can talk to you at first hand of Bulawayo or the Australian bush, but are instantly nonplussed if the subject of rural England be broached. When he was done talking of places with savage and infinitely-repetitive names, composed of fantastically-arranged vowels, with never a consonant to consort with them, he was asked if he knew Kent. "Kent?" he repeated, in Jingle-like fashion, "why, yes. Canterbury Cathedral, hop-gardens, Charles Dickens, Rochester, Dover, and—and all that," he concluded, with a vague sweep of his arm.
