A Tunbridge Wells Bibliography Sue Brown A Tunbridge Wells Bibliography Sue Brown Although the history of the town of Tunbridge Wells only goes back to the 17th century, its popularity as a spa town has generated a surpris- ing amount of literature – from monographs on the efficacy of its min- eral waters to periodical articles on its Victorian architecture. This bibliography aims to be as comprehensive as possible, given the limitations of space. The entries are grouped under the following sub- ject headings: ARCHITECTURE, ARTS AND CRAFTS .................................... 3 BIOGRAPHY .......................................................................... 7 CHURCH HISTORY .............................................................. 11 CIVIC HISTORY AND SERVICES .......................................... 17 GENERAL HISTORY ............................................................. 19 GUIDE BOOKS & TRAVEL .................................................... 22 ILLUSTRATIONS/PHOTOGRAPHS ....................................... 26 LITERATURE ....................................................................... 28 MAPS AND PLANS ............................................................... 31 MISCELLANEOUS SUBJECTS .............................................. 34 NATURAL SCIENCES .......................................................... 36 SCHOOLS AND EDUCATION................................................ 38 SPAS & MEDICINE .............................................................. 39 TRANSPORT ....................................................................... 42 The entries follow the sequential typographical convention that: Authors’/artists’ names are IN BOLD UPPER & lower case Titles are in Italic Publishers’ names appear third and in standard type; but, where no individual author has been identified, they are [bracketed] in standard UPPER CASE in the author’s position. The bulk of the material may be seen at Tunbridge Wells Reference Library.

  • Margate Caves Cliftonville © 2009 R
    KENT ARCHAEOLOGICAL SOCIETY MARGATE CAVES CLIFTONVILLE © 2009 R. F. LeGear MAAIS AIFA This paper has been downloaded from www.kentarchaeology.ac. The author has placed the paper on the site for download for personal or academic use. Any other use must be cleared with the author of the paper who retains the copyright. Please email [email protected] for details regarding copyright clearance. The Kent Archaeological Society (Registered Charity 223382) welcomes the submission of papers. The details can be downloaded from the website. Introduction The set of chalk caves known as Margate Caves have been a popular tourist attraction since the 1860s when they were first opened to the public as ‘Vortigern’s cavern’. In 2004, the Caves were closed due to Health and Safety issues and access to the site is now prohibited, the long-term future of the Caves being uncertain. This short paper is based on a report prepared for the Heritage Developments Advisor of Thanet District Council by the writer in December 2008. Methodology As the Caves are not currently accessible this report has been prepared primarily from notes made during 1993 when the manager of the Caves at the time, Nikki Martin, planned to remove the accumulated debris that had been deposited down the well and clear out the shafts [or sumps] at the bottom of the so called dungeons. A small party of Kent Underground Research Group members volunteered to undertake these tasks and spent several weekends at the site¹. The writer was invited to attend and used the opportunity to conduct a modern underground survey using standard cave survey techniques [Fig 1].

  • Dementia Toolkit for Small Museums
    Dementia Toolkit 1 The best thing for being sad, is to learn something. That’s the only thing that never fails. You may grow old and trembling in your anatomies, you may lie awake at night listening to the disorder of your veins, you may miss your only love, you may see the world about you devastated by evil lunatics, or know your honour trampled in the sewers of baser minds. There is only one thing for it then — to learn. Learn why the world wags and wags it. That is the only thing which the mind can never exhaust, never alienate, never be tortured by, never fear or distrust, and never dream of regretting. Learning is the only thing for you. Look what a lot of things there are to learn. -T.H White, The Once and Future King 2 Introduction The first thing to say about this toolkit is that it is… well, a toolkit. It is not intended as an evaluation, or as a simple exercise in sharing best practice. This toolkit has been written to help small museums design their own wellbeing programmes, and is based on a project undertaken with that same thought in mind. It is hoped that by reading and digesting the information contained here you will gain a better understanding not only of how to undertake initiatives like this yourself, but of the important role museums play in the mental health and wellbeing of their communities. In recent times, this much discussed role has frequently been explored, with very well funded projects around the UK.

  • National Sample from the 1851 Census of Great Britain List of Sample Clusters
    NATIONAL SAMPLE FROM THE 1851 CENSUS OF GREAT BRITAIN LIST OF SAMPLE CLUSTERS The listing is arranged in four columns, and is listed in cluster code order, but other orderings are available. The first column gives the county code; this code corresponds with the county code used in the standardised version of the data. An index of the county codes forms Appendix 1 The second column gives the cluster type. These cluster types correspond with the stratification parameter used in sampling and have been listed in Background Paper II. Their definitions are as follows: 11 English category I 'Communities' under 2,000 population 12 Scottish category I 'Communities' under 2,000 population 21 Category IIA and VI 'Towns' and Municipal Boroughs 26 Category IIB Parliamentary Boroughs 31 Category III 'Large non-urban communities' 41 Category IV Residual 'non-urban' areas 51 Category VII Unallocable 'urban' areas 91 Category IX Institutions The third column gives the cluster code numbers. This corresponds to the computing data set name, except that in the computing data set names the code number is preceded by the letters PAR (e.g. PAR0601). The fourth column gives the name of the cluster community. It should be noted that, with the exception of clusters coded 11,12 and 91, the cluster unit is the enumeration district and not the whole community. Clusters coded 11 and 12, however, correspond to total 'communities' (see Background Paper II). Clusters coded 91 comprise twenty successive individuals in every thousand, from a list of all inmates of institutions concatenated into a continuous sampling frame; except that 'families' are not broken, and where the twenty individuals come from more than one institution, each institution forms a separate cluster.
