A History of Ash and Its Churches
A History of Ash and its Churches The present parish of Ash, more than 7,000 acres in extent and one of the largest in Kent, was once only a part of the great manor of Wingham. Originally a royal manor, Wingham was given by King Athelstan of Kent to the See of Canterbury about 850 : it covered the present parishes of Ash, Goodnestone, Nonington, Wingham and parts of Staple and Womenswold. In a list of churches probably made in 1071, in which 'Aesce' is said to belong to Wingham, mention is also made of an apparently more important church 'de Raette', as well as one at 'Fleota' belonging to the manor of Folkestone. If, as seems likely, 'de Raette' refers to Richborough, this is the only record of that church; but the chapel of Fleet, actually within the 3rd century Roman walls of Richborough Castle, continued in use until the 16th century. Leland in the time of Henry VIII wrote that 'withyn the castel is a lytle paroche Chirch of S. Augustine'. It was believed that when St. Augustine first stepped ashore in England in 597 the impression of his foot was miraculously left upon a stone. This relic was afterwards kept in this chapel dedicated to him, and pilgrims flocked there upon the anniversary of the landing to pray and to recover their health. Excavations have uncovered the ground plan of the chapel, and confirm that it was pre-Norman in origin. Excavations in the northwest comer of the Roman fort have also, revealed the foundations and font of an even earlier church of c.400, one of the earliest Christian structures known in Britain. -

Notes on Roman Roads in East Kent Margary
http://kentarchaeology.org.uk/research/archaeologia-cantiana/ Kent Archaeological Society is a registered charity number 223382 © 2017 Kent Archaeological Society NOTES ON ROMAN ROADS IN EAST KENT By IvAN D. MARGARY, F.S.A. THE Roman roads of East Kent are generally so obvious and well known that no further description of them seems necessary. There are, however, a few points at which the line is doubtful or where topographical problems admit of some discussion, and it is in considera- tion of these that the following notes are offered. They are based upon field observation made during a visit of some days to the district in June, 1947. STONE STREET—LYMPNE TO CANTERBURY The very striking directness of this road makes it clear that its purpose was to link Canterbury with the Roman port at Lympne. This was probably situated below the old cliffs, near the hamlet of West Hythe, to which access is given by a convenient combo in the cliffs at that point from Shipway Cross above. The Saxon Shore fort at Stutfall Castle was, of course, a late Roman construction, much later than Stone Street, and was probably connected to West Hythe by a spur road below the cliffs, for access to it from Lympne, directly above, would have been awkward. It is to Shipway Cross and the head of the combe that the main alignment of Stone Street is exactly directed. Although it has now disappeared between the Cross and New Inn Green, there are distinct traces of its scattered stone metalling in the field to the south of the Green, while portions of hedgerows and a footpath mark some parts of its course there. -
Black Lane (PINS Ref: ROW–3237045) BHS Comment on Objector’S Statement of Case
Black Lane (PINS ref: ROW–3237045) BHS comment on objector’s statement of case A. Introduction A.1. These are the comments on the British Horse Society (BHS) on the statement of case submitted by ET Landnet on behalf of its client, Mr Fox-Pitt. We refer below to the position represented by ET Landnet as the case made by ‘the objector’. We refer to refer- ences in the BHS statement of case as ‘SOC, X.Y’, meaning item Y in part X of the state- ment of case. We refer to the order way as ‘Black Lane’. We refer to numbered paragraphs in the objector’s statement of case as ‘ETL, para.X’. A.2. We make the following observation in opening. A.3. Firstly, we recognise, as the objector observes, that there are inconsistencies in the evidence in support of confirming the order. That is why there is an order before the Secretary of State. If Black Lane had remained in continuous and unchallenged use up to the present day, the whole of it would have been readily identified and added to the defin- itive map and statement under Part IV of the National Parks and Access to the Countryside Act 1949. As it is, use has been in decline since the early nineteenth century (SOC, I.G), and only part was recorded under the 1949 Act — and then only as an apparently dead- end footpath (see our comments at para.C.20 below). A.4. Secondly, the Knowlton estate was acquired in 1904 by Maj. Francis Elmer Speed,1 of whom Marietta Fox-Pitt (née Speed), the present owner of Knowlton Court, is a descendent. -

Draft Local Plan Proposed Site Allocations - Reasons for Site Selection
Topic Paper: Draft Local Plan Proposed Site Allocations - Reasons for Site Selection Dover District Local Plan Supporting document The Selection of Site Allocations for the Draft Local Plan This paper provides the background to the selection of the proposed housing, gypsy and traveller and employment site allocations for the Draft Local Plan, and sets out the reasoning behind the selection of specific site options within the District’s Regional, District, Rural Service, Local Centres, Villages and Hamlets. Overarching Growth Strategy As part of the preparation of the Local Plan the Council has identified and appraised a range of growth and spatial options through the Sustainability Appraisal (SA) process: • Growth options - range of potential scales of housing and economic growth that could be planned for; • Spatial options - range of potential locational distributions for the growth options. By appraising the reasonable alternative options the SA provides an assessment of how different options perform in environmental, social and economic terms, which helps inform which option should be taken forward. It should be noted, however, that the SA does not decide which spatial strategy should be adopted. Other factors, such as the views of stakeholders and the public, and other evidence base studies, also help to inform the decision. The SA identified and appraised five reasonable spatial options for growth (i.e. the pattern and extent of growth in different locations): • Spatial Option A: Distributing growth to the District’s suitable and potentially suitable housing and employment site options (informed by the HELAA and Economic Land Review). • Spatial Option B: Distributing growth proportionately amongst the District’s existing settlements based on their population. -
The East Kent Ploughing Match Association Women's Section. 1951
The East Kent Ploughing Match Association Women's Section. 1951 was the first year that there was a Women's Section of the E.K.P.M.A. which was held at Adisham Court on the 18th October. Records show that a Nonington Agriculture Association P.M. was held as long ago as 1840 and continued for about 90 years with some breaks most notably during the two World Wars and during "Difficulties in the Agricultural Situation" in depression of the 1930's". Soon after the end of the Second World War, on 25th October 1945,the Shepherdswell and District P.M.Association, as it was then called, held the first Match at West Court Shepherdswell where, despite rain and gale force winds,it is thaught about 1000 people attended "Ladies"were involved selling catalogues at a shilling [5p] a time. Angela Coleman and Kate Hume being involved almost from the beginning. In 1950 the Association changed its name to the East Kent P.M.A.and the possibility of a Womens Section was suggested by Ella Robertson, John Robertson's wife. of Appleton Manor, but it was not thought to be financially possible that year. However she and a number of the P.M Committee Members' wives formed a Committee of their own and were able to put on their first Show the following year. They were a remarkable collection of Ladies, mostly Farmer's wives, the majority in their 40's or early 50's, who had worked so hard during the War coping with shortages and the worry of children being evacuated from this hot spot of East Kent, followed by a difficult 5 years trying to get back to normal. -

The County Council has reviewed the draft Neighbourhood Plan and, for ease of reference, has provided comments structured under the chapter headings and policies in the Neighbourhood Plan. Section 2: Ash Parish Now Locality and History Paragraph 24 – The text in this paragraph refers to resources held at the Ash Heritage Group. It could also usefully mention the Ash Neighbourhood Development Plan Archaeological Review that was prepared in 2018, which provides a helpful review of the archaeological history of Ash. This review is primarily drawn from the Kent Historic Environment Record, which should also be mentioned as a source of baseline evidence. Paragraph 30 - The County Council recommends that “105 Historic England building listings” is amended to read “105 Listed Buildings”. There are 789 records of archaeological sites, historic buildings and artefactual discoveries in the Parish that are not legally protected, but which nonetheless contribute to the historic character of Ash. Paragraph 32 - The historic character of the landscape is a key element of the character of Ash (particularly on the fringes of existing developments or on greenfield sites).
