The Register is intended to keep attention focused on historic buildings and monuments which are threatened; to define and monitor the scale of the problem and to help to prioritise action and resources by English Heritage, local authorities, building preservation trusts and others. It is a useful indication of the state of the Borough’s more important listed buildings. The number of entries for the South East Region has declined from 233 in 1998 when the Register was first launched to 208. Almost two thirds of English Heritage’s regional grant budget went towards cases on the register in 2004/05. The Register can be viewed in its entirety at www.englishheritage.org.uk/bar. The entries for Swale District are included here at Appendix A. The Picture in Swale Borough Of the 71 entries in the Register for Kent, 13 are in Swale. 13 represents 9% of the higher graded listed buildings in Swale, compared to the national average of 3.4% and the South-East Regional average of less than 2.4%. Two buildings have been removed from the Register for Swale this year: Oare Gunpowder Works, Faversham and the Major Barn at Abbey Farm, Faversham. Both have been the subject of comprehensive restoration and both have received substantial grant assistance from English Heritage as well as a small grant from Swale Borough Council’s Listed Building Grant Scheme. There are no new entries for Swale in the 2005/06 Register. A brief update on the other entries for Swale follows: Shurland Hall, Eastchurch English Heritage has entered into negotiations with the freeholder with a view to stabilising the ruin and inviting interests from parties, including building Continued….. 1 1.1 (continued) PART 1 preservation trusts, who may be willing to take it on. A Conservation Plan was commissioned in early 2005 and English Heritage indicate that work will commence shortly. Medieval Stables at Abbey Farm, Faversham Minor Barn, Abbey Farm, Faversham Both buildings form part of the Abbey Farm complex, now owned by Faversham Joinery. Emergency weatherproofing, frame repairs and re- roofing works are in progress at the minor barn but the future use of both buildings has yet to be decided. Discussions are taking place with Officers. Fremlins Brewery Offices, Court Street, Faversham (locally known as the Brewmaster’s House) This building, owned by Tesco, continues to be disused. Despite its outward appearance the interior has been gutted in order to eradicate repeated outbreaks of dry rot in the past. The ground floor has been substantially removed and panelling, shutters, skirtings, doors and door frames have been removed from the principal ground floor rooms, all without the benefit of listed building consent. The interior of this building has deteriorated and been progressively vandalised since it became redundant in the 1990s. Committee may wish to consider the use of a listed building enforcement notice under Section 38 of the Planning (Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas) Act 1990 which is reported elsewhere on this agenda. Provender, Provender Lane, Norton Phase I of the restoration was recently completed with grant assistance from English Heritage’s Small Country House Scheme and a small contribution from this Council’s Listed Building Grant Scheme. It is hoped that further phases will secure the future of this outstanding house but a funding strategy is not yet in place. Former Royal Naval Dockyard Church, Sheerness The Church recently changed hands at auction and negotiations are taking place with the new owner and English Heritage with a view to restoring the roof and external envelope through a scheme of residential conversion. Dockyard House, Sheerness Dockyard 1-15 (consec) Regency Close, Sheerness Dockyard These buildings were purchased by a development company, Dockyard Buildings Ltd, in April 2003. Progress towards a scheme for the restoration of the listed buildings and substantial enabling development of 69 new Continued…. 2 1.1 (continued) PART 1 residential units has been slow. The current planning and listed building consent applications (reference SW/05/0771, 0772 and 0770) are available for inspection and will be reported to Committee in due course. The issue of the Repairs Notice at Regency Close is to be reported on a future agenda. Coach Houses at Naval Terrace, Sheerness The coach houses have been the subject of survey and costings but problems of fragmented ownership have made it difficult to bring forward a comprehensive restoration package. Former Working Mast House, Sheerness Dockyard Archway House, Sheerness Dockyard The Boat Store, Sheerness Dockyard Sheerness Defences, Sheerness Dockyard Four of the District’s thirteen buildings at risk remain in the ownership of the Mersey Docks and Harbour Company. In recent years the Company has replaced a number of windows at Archway House and carried out routine and emergency works to the roof, gutters and downpipes of the Grade I listed boatstore. However, in common with large parts of the historic dockyard, buildings remain disused or unoccupied and routine maintenance and decoration (necessary to protect historic windows and doors) occurs infrequently or not at all. It is hoped that the integrated dockyard study which may result in the preparation of a masterplan for the dockyard, combined with the recent takeover by Peel Holdings, may see a more constructive and proactive approach to the heritage of the dockyard.

  • The Topography of Some Saxon Charters Relating to the Faversham District
    Archaeologia Cantiana Vol. 46 1934 ( 123 ) THE TOPOGRAPHY OF SOME SAXON CHARTERS RELATING TO THE FAVERSHAM DISTRICT. BY GOEDON WARD, M.D., F.S.A. IT is proposed, in this essay, to study the topography of •certain Saxon charters relating to Faversham and the neighbourhood. These are of much interest and it is fortunate that most of them are either still in existence or •are known from almost contemporary copies. But the topographical questions involved have not yet been decided and the use of these charters for historical purposes has therefore been open to criticism. Thus, the " region of Faversham ", and the " region suburban to Faversham " are sometimes considered to be the same ; others believe them to be separate areas. Again, the common expression " publica strata " or " antiqua strata " may be a valuable guide to an old road hitherto unidentified, or it may be one •of the synonyms for Watling Street. The whereabouts of Cilling, the old port of Faversham, has never been decided but these charters afford us indications of great interest in this connection, even if it can hardly be said that they leave no more to discover. The evidence of how a con- siderable area was deliberately taken from the manor and parish of Faversham and placed in the adjoining manor and parish of Graveney seems to have escaped comment until now and is of great historical significance. I feel sure that I shall not be able to refrain from enlarging somewhat on these points but in the main this essay is intended to be topographical. There will be no extensive quotations in Latin or Anglo-Saxon (the original charters and the Cartu- larium Saxonicum are available for students), nor is it proposed to deal in any way with that King's Wood belonging to Faversham which lay in Ulcombe and neighbouring BOUGHTON UNbER BLEAN CYNINCGES CUA LOND -ONE| IN RECIO WESTAN WIDD6 SOLD TO flRCHBUMOP GRATOM EAH WLFRED IN (V° 8(l» .

  • Volume Two Appendix 1: Catalogue of Known, Suspected and Possible Villa Sites in Britain 4Ppendix 1 Introduction to the Catalogue of Known, Suspected and Possible
    Volume Two Appendix 1: Catalogue of Known, Suspected and Possible Villa Sites in Britain 4ppendix 1_ Introduction to the Catalogue of Known, Suspected and Possible Roman Villas in Britain The existence of some villas can be held to be self-evident: they have been at least partially excavated and shown to be rectilinear masonry buildings, perhaps with baths, mosaics arid hypocausts. However, before a site is actually excavated - or given a thorough geophysical or successful aerial survey - it is difficult to discern its exact nature. Any surface scatter of Roman artefacts, particularly building debris, may indicate the presence of a villa. This presents the thorniest of problems to the compiler of a catalogue of possible villa sites, for a field scatter of Roman material may also represent the site of a temple, a mansio, a small town, a 'native settlement' or even a heavily manured field. Yet field scatters must be taken into account, because they may prove to be villas. They are certainly likely to prove to be a settlement of some sort. Even a light field scatter belies a much greater amount of material beneath the surface. Ebcperiments by Ainmerman (1985) and Parker- Pearson (pers. comm.) on the relationship of surface to sub-surface artefact densities have demonstrated that a relatively small amount of material - as little as 2% of the total - is present on the surface at any one time. These results have been confirmed with Roman material in Britain by Gaffney and Tingle (1985) at Maddle Farm (BK27) and by Hayfield at 1harram (NK37)(pers. Comm.).

  • Dear Sir/Madam Attached Is Our Submission for Deadline 7. Please, Would You Confirm Receipt in Due Course?
    From: To: Cleve Hill Solar Park Subject: Faversham Society"s Deadline 7 Submission Date: 13 November 2019 17:01:30 Attachments: Dear Sir/Madam Attached is our submission for Deadline 7. Please, would you confirm receipt in due course? Regards Harold Goodwin Chair of the Faversham Society The Faversham Society’s Deadline 7 Submission The Faversham Society supports solar power, along with wind power and other forms of renewable energy. We are accordingly dismayed that hundreds of new houses are being built around Faversham without any sustainable energy provision. The Society supports clean solar. However, the Cleve Hill proposal is for dirty solar: we have major concerns about the batteries, safety and security and decommissioning. These concerns have not been allayed by anything presented at Deadline 6 or subsequently. Need We do not consider that a strong enough case for need has been made to outweigh our concerns about the proposal from the developer. In our Deadline 5 submission (REP 5-053) we presented cogent arguments that in light of the rapid developments in small-scale localised solar PV it is impossible to establish that CHSP is needed to meet the requirements projected by the National Grid in their FES 19. This argument is reinforced by recent reports of potential growth in off-shore wind and ‘floating’ solar PV. The applicants in their submission to Deadline 6 (REP 6-015) unconvincingly seek to refute this argument by suggesting that the FES figures cannot be disaggregated between generation types and that the current proposals in planning are not an indication of projects which will materialise.

    Graveney with Goodnestone Village Newsletter April and May 2019 A note from the editor Spring is such a fabulous time, the scents of hyacinths and the emergence of snowdrops, daffodils and then tulips… and lambs in the fields. It is definitely time to get out and enjoy the fabulous countryside. It is also a great time to walk out in the countryside. However, a walk outdoors can be spoiled by dog mess, which can also be a health risk especially to children. So if you have a dog, always make sure to clear up!
