  • East Malling Hotline Feb March 2021
    East Malling Hotline February / March 2021 News from your Local Lib Dem Team in East Malling East Malling Centre Community Have your say on 20mph scheme Larder - there to support you for residential roads Huge thanks to the team at the East Malling Centre who have continued to do a fabulous job supporting residents during this latest lockdown. If you are in need of support, or if you wish to volunteer, please contact Liz Simpson. Trudy writes: After many years of resisting 20mph Schemes, KCC is now favouring them on the large scale used in many towns and cities. So I have used £3,500 of my Councillors Community Fund for KCC to prepare a scheme for consultation to cover East and West Malling and Larkfield. The idea is that all residential roads should have a 20 mph limit, marked only by road signs and markings on the road surface. KCC say the main through routes of Winterfield Lane, Clare Lane, Mill Street and New Road (between the King and Queen and Beech Road) could also be restricted to 20 mph. However they suggest added features such as ramps, flashing signs or chicanes would be needed, for which funding would have to be found. Consultation on a 30mph limit for New Road between Beech Road and A20 is expected soon. So, all estate roads in Bradbourne Park, Clare Park, Stepstile, and Winterfield estates would have 20mph limits. The northern/adopted end of Blacklands, Middle Mill, Stickens Lane,Upper Mill, Cottenham Close , Vigor Close, Church Walk, The Trudy has given £1,750 to the East Malling Grange, Rocks Close, Gillett’s Lane and Four Acres Community Centre from her Councillors would also be covered by 20 mph restrictions.

Gavelkind. or partible inheritance, encouraged people to stay in their native places to work their own land but also to develop other trades to supplement their incomes. Tenants who became tanners took advantage of local cattle herds, plentiful local water and extensive oak woods, which yielded bark to make tannin, the essential ingredient for making leather. Little physical evidence of the Wrotham tanneries survives. Their existence, and that of the tanners who worked them in the fifteenth a n d sixteenth centuries, has been pieced together from documentary sources most of which were found in the Centre for Kentish Studies.
